Draw a right triangle in which the sides (other than hypotenuse) are of lengths $5cm$ and $4cm$ . Then construct another triangle whose sides are $5/3$ times the corresponding sides of the given triangle.

Steps of construction:

1. Mark a line segment $BC=5cm$ with the help of ruler.

2. At B, draw perpendicular BX and cut off $BA=4cm$ .

3. Then, join AC. Then, ABC is the triangle

4. Draw a ray BY making an acute angle with BC and cut off $5$ equal parts making $B{{B}_{1}}={{B}_{1}}{{B}_{2}}={{B}_{2}}{{B}_{3}}={{B}_{3}}{{B}_{4}}={{B}_{4}}{{B}_{5}}$
