is one side;
and are diagonals.
The diagonals of a parllelogram bisect each other,
meaning that and intersect

So, and
.
Let us draw , and find .
To find , we draw arcs of the circles
centered at A with radius , and
centered at D with radius .
Where those two arcs meet, we find .

Now, let us draw
ray , with point , and
ray , with point .
After that, we just connect points,
to ,
to , and
to ,
