Exercise 4.1 Solutions

1. Fill in the blanks.

Solution:

1. A line through two end points 'A' and 'B' is denoted by  AB with a double arrow above (↔) i.e., &overleftrightarrow{AB} .
2. A line segment from point 'B' to point 'A' is denoted by  BA with a bar above (‾) i.e., &overline{BA} .
3. A ray has  one  end point(s).

2. How many line segments are there in the given line? Name them.

Solution:

There are a total of 10 line segments formed by the points P, A, B, C, and Q on the given line.

Name of the line segments:

• Starting from point P: &overline{PA}, &overline{PB}, &overline{PC}, &overline{PQ}
• Starting from point A: &overline{AB}, &overline{AC}, &overline{AQ}
• Starting from point B: &overline{BC}, &overline{BQ}
• Starting from point C: &overline{CQ}

3. Measure the following line segments.

Solution:

(Note: Exact measurements depend on the textbook scale format, standard calibrated textbook dimensions are as follows):

• XY = 2.5 cm
• AB = 3.4 cm
• EF = 4.0 cm
• PQ = 3.0 cm

4. Construct a line segment using ruler and compass.

Step-by-Step Construction Procedure:

1. AB = 7.5 cm
   • Draw a long straight line l and mark a point A on it.
   • Place the compass pointer at the 0 mark of the ruler and extend the pencil tip to 7.5 cm.
   • Keeping the compass width unchanged, place its pointer on point A and cut an arc on the line l.
   • Mark the intersection point as B. &overline{AB} is the required line segment of length 7.5 cm.
2. CD = 3.6 cm
   • Draw a straight line m and mark a point C on it.
   • Measure a width of 3.6 cm on the compass using a ruler.
   • Place the compass needle on point C and mark an arc intersecting line m.
   • Label this intersection point as D. &overline{CD} is the required line segment of length 3.6 cm.
3. QR = 10 cm
   • Draw a straight line n and mark a point Q on it.
   • Set the distance between the compass pointer and pencil tip to exactly 10 cm using a ruler.
   • Place the compass needle firmly at Q and draw an arc cutting the line n.
   • Label the intersection point as R. &overline{QR} is the required line segment of length 10 cm.

5. From the given figure, name the: (i) parallel lines, (ii) intersecting lines, (iii) points of intersection.

Solution:

1. Parallel lines:
   • Line CD and Line EF (CD ∥ EF)
   • Line CD and Line GH (CD ∥ GH)
   • Line EF and Line GH (EF ∥ GH)
   • Thus, the vertical lines CD, EF, and GH are mutually parallel to each other.
2. Intersecting lines:
   • Line AB intersects line CD
   • Line AB intersects line EF
   • Line AB intersects line GH
   • Line AB intersects line IJ
   • Line GH intersects line IJ
3. Points of intersection:
   • The points where the lines cross each other are: P, Q, and R.

6. From the given figure, name:

Solution:

1. All pairs of parallel lines:
   • Line l₃ and Line l₄ (l₃ ∥ l₄)
   • Line l₃ and Line l₅ (l₃ ∥ l₅)
   • Line l₄ and Line l₅ (l₄ ∥ l₅)
2. All pairs of intersecting lines:
   • Pair (l₁, l₂)
   • Pairs involving horizontal line l₃: (l₁, l₃), (l₂, l₃)
   • Pairs involving horizontal line l₄: (l₁, l₄), (l₂, l₄)
   • Pairs involving horizontal line l₅: (l₁, l₅), (l₂, l₅)
3. Pair of lines whose point of intersection is 'V':
   • Line l₁ and Line l₂ intersect at point V.
4. Point of intersection of the lines 'l₂' and 'l₃':
   • Point Q
5. Point of intersection of the lines 'l₁' and 'l₅':
   • Point T
