Expert Answer:
Since, ABCD is a parallelogram, opposite sides are equal. So, AB = CD and BC = AD.
The steps of construction are as follows:
1) Draw a line segment AB = 5.1 cm
2) At B, draw an angle ABX of 75 degrees.
3) With B as centre and 7 cm radius, draw an arc cutting ray BX at C.
4) With C as centre and radius 5.1 cm, draw an arc.
5) With A as centre and radius 7 cm, draw an arc cutting the previous arc at D.
6) Join CD and AD to get the required parallelogram ABCD.
