Best answer

(i) Draw a line segment AB of 5cm 

(ii) Draw the perpendicular bisectors of AB 

(iii) Draw an arc which intersects the perpendicular bisectors at point O will be required center. 

(iv) With center O and radius OA draw a circle. No, we cannot draw a circle of radius 2cm passing through A and B because when we draw an arc of radius 2cm with center A, the arc will not interest the perpendicular bisector and we will not find the center
