EXERCISE-5.1 P1. What is the disadvantage in comparing line segments by mere observation ? Sol. By mere observation, we cannot be absolutely sure about the judgment. When we compare two line segments of almost same lengths, we cannot be sure about the line segment of greater length. Therefore, it is not an appropriate method to compare line segments having a slight difference between their lengths. This is the disadvantage in comparing line segments by mere observation. P2. Why is it better to use a divider than a ruler, while measuring the length of a line segment ? Sol. It is better to use a divider than a ruler because while using a ruler, positioning error may occur due to the incorrect positioning of the eye. P3. Draw any line segment, say AB. Take any point C lying in between A and B. Measure the lengths of AB, BC and AC. Is AB = AC + CB ? [Note : If A, B, C are any three points on a line such that AC + CB = AB, then we can be sure that C lies between A and B] Sol. It is given that point C is lying somewhere in between A and B. Therefore, all these points are lying on the same line segment AB. Hence, for every situation in which point C is lying in between A and B, it may be said that AB = AC + CB. For example, AB is a line segment of 6 cm and C is a point between A and B, such that it is 2 cm away from point B. We can find that the measure of line segment comes to 4 cm. Hence, relation AB = AC + CB is verified. P4. If A, B, C are three points on a line such that AB = 5 cm, BC = 3 cm and AC = 8 cm, which one of them lies between the other two ? Sol. Given that, AB = 5 cm; BC = 3 cm; AC = 8 cm It can be observed that AC = AB + BC Clearly, point B is lying between A and C. P5. Verify, whether D is the mid-point of AG.
Sol. From the given figure, it can be observed that AD = 4 − 1 = 3 units DG = 7 − 4 = 3 units AG = 7 − 1 = 6 units Clearly, D is the mid-point of AG. P6. If B is the mid-point AC of and C is the mid-point of BD, where A, B, C, D lie on a straight line, say why AB = CD ? Sol.  Since B is the mid-point of AC, AB = BC …. (1) Since C is the mid-point of BD, BC = CD … (2) From equation (1) and (2), we may find that AB = CD EXERCISE-5.2 P1.

(c) A square can be thought of as a special rhombus. (d) Squares, rectangles, parallelograms are all quadrilaterals. (e) Square is also a parallelogram. Sol. (a) In a rectangle, all the interior angles are of the same measure, i.e., 90º and only the opposite sides of the rectangle are of the same length whereas in case of a square, all the interior angles are of 90° and all the sides are of the same length. In other words, a rectangle with all sides equal becomes a square. Therefore, a square is a special rectangle. (b) Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal. In a rectangle, the opposite sides are parallel and equal. Also, all the interior angles of the rectangle are of the same measure, i.e., 90º. In other words, a parallelogram with each angle a right angle becomes a rectangle. Therefore, a rectangle can be thought of as a special parallelogram. (c) All sides of a rhombus and a square are equal. However, in case of a square, all interior angles are of 90º measure. A rhombus with each angle a right angle becomes a square. Therefore, a square can be thought of as a special rhombus. (d) All are closed figures made of 4 line segments. Therefore, all these are quadrilaterals. (e) Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal. In a square, the opposite sides are parallel and the lengths of all the four sides are equal.
