(f) M is point on ray OP.
(g) is different from .
(h) is same as .
(i) is not opposite to .
(j) O is not an initial point of .
(k) N is the initial point of and
(a) True.
As we can see the line is passing through all the points.
(b) True.
As we know that a line segment contains every point on the line between its endpoints. So, MN is a line segment with end points M and N, & has O in between its endpoints only.
(c) True.
As we know that a line segment contains every point on the line between its endpoints and MN is a line segment with end points M and N.
(d) False.
If OP is the line segment than O and N can’t be its endpoints as the Name it self tells us O and P is the endpoints.
(e) False.
M can’t be one of the endpoints of line segment QO as its end points are Q and O itself.
(f) False.
A ray has only one end-point and extends infinitely in the other direction for example sun rays.
So, the ray OP starts from O and extends it self in the direction of P and it doesn’t have M on it.
(g) True.
As Both the rays has different origin points O and Q.
(h) False.
As we can see both the rays are starting from the same point but extending in different directions so they can’t be same.
(i) False.
Ray OM is Opposite to ray OP
(j) False.
O is the Initial point of OP as the name it self suggest it is starting from O only.
(k) True.
N is the initial Point of NP and NM.

Draw any polygon and shade its interior.
A polygon is a n-sided two-dimensional figure, where n is the number of sides. Here, a pentagon is shown which as 5 sides.
Consider the given figure and answer the questions:
(a) Is it a curve?
(b) Is it closed?
(a) Yes, it is a curved figure
(b) Yes, it is closed figure.

(a) A closed curve that is not a polygon.
(b) An open curve made up entirely of line segments.
(c) A polygon with two sides.
(a) A closed curve that is not a polygon – a polygon is a two-dimentional figure which has minimum 3 or more straight lines. So, circle isn’t a polygon.
(b) An open curve made up entirely of line segments.
(c) A polygon with two sides isn’t possible. Because a polygon is a closed shape with sides minimum number of three sides.

Investigate:
Use strips and fasteners to make a triangle and a quadrilateral.
Try to push inward at any one vertex of the triangle. Do the same to the quadrilateral.
Is the triangle distorted? Is the quadrilateral distorted? Is the triangle rigid?
Why is it that structures like electric towers make use of triangular shapes and not quadrilaterals?
This is an interesting activity. The students must try this on their own.

Is every diameter of a circle also a chord?
Yes, it is true that every diameter of a circle also a chord.
Fact: The diameter is the longest chord in the circle.
Is every chord of a circle also a diameter?
No, every chord of a circle is not the diameter.
Because for a chord to be the diameter it should passes through the centre of the circle.
Draw any circle and mark

Say true or false:
(a) Two diameters of a circle will necessarily intersect.
(b) The centre of a circle is always in its interior.
(a) True
Diameters of a circle always intersect each other at the centre of the circle.
(b) True
As it is the centre so it will be in interior only.
