As PR > PQ, the side containing the base angle Q is less than third side.

• Cut the line segment QS equal to PR-PQ=2 cm , from the ray QX extended on  opposite side of base QR.
• Join SR and draw its perpendicular bisector ray AB which intersect SR at M.
• Let P be the intersection point of SX and perpendicular bisector AB. Then join PR.
• Thus ∆PQR is the required Triangle.
