Solution

The correct option is D Yes, if BC and CD is given.
We cannot draw a unique quadrilateral with the measurements given.

With the measurements given we can draw a triangle ABD.
If the lengths BC and CD are given, we can construct the quadrilateral. When 4 sides, 1 diagonal is given, we can construct a aquadrilateral.

Suppose, if BC = 8 cm and CD = 6 cm, we can construct a quadrilateral as follows.
