    Arrange the following steps of construction while constructing a triangle of scale \[AB=2.3\text{ }cm,\]\[BC=5\text{ }cm\] and \[AC=2.9\text{ }cm\]such that each of its sides is \[\frac{2}{3}rd\]of the corresponding side of the \[\Delta ABC\]. Steps of Construction
    Step I: On BE, cut off 3 equal parts making \[{{B}_{1}},{{B}_{2}}\] and \[{{B}_{3}}\]
    Step II: Now, draw C'A' parallel to CA. Then, \[\Delta A'BC'\] is the required A whose sides are of the corresponding sides of the \[\Delta ABC\].
    Step III: From point B draw an arc of \[2.3\text{ }cm\]and from point C draw an arc of \[2.9\text{ }cm\]cutting each other at point A.
    Step IV: Take\[BC=5\text{ }cm\].
    Step V: Join \[{{B}_{3}}C\] and from \[{{B}_{2}}\] draw \[{{B}_{2}}C'\] parallel to \[{{B}_{3}}C,\] such that BC is 2/3 of BC.
    Step VI: On B make an acute \[\angle CBE\]downwards.
    Step VII: Join AB and AC. Then ABC is the required triangle.
