Solution
[Let us draw a rough sketch of the triangle ABC. Name the vertices and show the given measures.]
Steps of Construction: Now let’s follow these steps one by one (i) Draw a line segment BC = 4 cm.
(ii) With B as Centre and radius 3.5 cm, draw an arc.
(iii) With C as centre and radius 4.5 cm, draw another arc cutting the previous arc at A.
(iv) Join AB and AC.
Therefore, ∆ ABC is the required triangle
