5 cm x 6 cm on the screen.
3. Using the Polygon tool, draw a polygon shape in the guides.
4. Select the polygon, click Element then choose Polygon Settings.
5. In the Polygon settings dialog box, select 3 sides and then click OK.
6. Finally, select the triangle and drag it to fit exactly inside the marked area
