Question -1.
Mark a point O on a piece of paper. Using a sharp pencil and a ruler, draw a line through the point O. Then draw one more line through the point O. How many lines can you draw through O?
Write a statement regarding your observations.
Answer-1
We take a point O on a piece of paper. Using a sharp pencil, we draw a line OA through O.
another line OB is drawn as shown in the figure.
We can draw an infinite number of lines from O as we know that an infinite number of lines can be drawn through a point in aplane,
Question -2.
Mark two points A and B on a plain sheet “ of paper. Using a sharp pencil and a ruler, draw a line through points A and B. Try to draw one more line through A and B. What do you observe ?
Write a statement regarding your observations.
Answer-2
Two points A and B are marked On the plain sheet of paper. Using pencil, draw a line through there two points.
We cannot draw any other line joining them as only one line can be drawn passing through two fixed (given) points in a plane.
Question -3.
Draw two straight lines on a sheet of paper so that the lines drawn :
(i) intersect each other.
(ii) do not intersect.
(iii) appear to intersect when extended.
Answer-3
wo straight lines are drawn on the sheet of a paper
(i) Intersecting each other:
(ii) Not intersecting each other:
(iii) Intersect each other when produced them:
Question- 4.
Draw a figure to show that :
(i) points A, B and C arc collinear.
(ii) lines AB, CD and EF are concurrent.
Answer-4
(i) We know that three or more points are collinear if they lie on the same straight line. Therefore the required figure (line) is given below on which three points A, B and C lie
(ii) If three or more lines pass through a common point, these are called concurrent lines. Below is given the figure, in which three lines AB, CD and EF are passing (or intersecting each other) at O.
Question -5.
In your note-book, draw two rays with the same initial point O and going in opposite directions. Write the special name for the final figure obtained.
Answer-5
Two rays OA and OB are drawn through O in opposite direction as given below.
There two rays form a straight line
Question- 6.
In each figure, given below, write the number of line segments used :
Answer-6
(i) In the given figure, there as Ten (10) line segments which are AB, BC, CD, DE, EF, FG, GH, HI, IJ and JA.
(ii) In the given figure, there are 12 line segments which are AB, BC, CD, DE, EF, FG, GH, HI, IJ, JK, KL and LA.
(iii) In the given figure, there are 13 line segments which are AB, BC, CD, DE, EF, FG, GH, HI, IJ, JK, KL, LM and MA.
(iv) In the given figure, there are 7 line segments which are AB, BC, CD, DE, DA, DB, CE.
Question- 7.
In a circle, point P is its centre and PA = PB = radius of the circle. Where do points A and B lie ?
Answer-7
A circle is given with centre P and PA = PB = radius of the circle.
∵ The radii of a circle are equal there they lie on the circumference of the circle In other words, path of a point which is equidistant from a fixed point is the circumference of a circle. The fixed point is called the centre and equidistance is the radius.
Question -8.
Draw a four-sided closed figure, in which:
(i) all the sides are equal and each angle is 90°.
(ii) opposite sides are equal and each angle is 90°.
Write the special name of each figure drawn.
Answer-8
(i) In this four sided closed figure all the sides are equal and each angle is 90°. This figure is called a square. In ABCD, AB = BC = CD = DA and ∠A = ∠B =∠C = ∠D = 90°
(ii) In this four sided closed figure opposite sides are equal and each angle is 90°. This figure is called a rectangle In rectangle ABCD, AB = CD and BC = AD
∠A = ∠B = ∠C = ∠D = 90°.
