Solution

Steps of construction :
(1) Draw a line m.
(2) Take two points A and B on the line m.
(3) Draw perpendiculars to the line m at A and B.
(4) On the perpendicular lines, take points P and Q at a distance of 4 cm from A and B respectively.
(5) Draw a line n passing through the points P and Q.
So, line n is the required line parallel to the line m at a distance of 4 cm away from it.
