Question 42.
Take two sticks and a piece of rope. Drive one stick into the ground. Form two loops, one at each end of the rope. Place one loop around the stick at the centre. Put the other around the other stick. Keep the sticks vertical to the ground. Keep the rope taut all the time and trace the path.
The figure obtained will be __.

:
A circle is a set of points on a plane which are at the same distance from a fixed point called centre.
Answer: Option C. -> 12
:
C
In the figure above, three lines AB, BC and AC intersect each other at three points A, B, and C.
Total angles subtended at point A = 4. (As shown in the figure)
Similarly, four angles are subtended at points B and C.
Hence, the total number of angles that are formed when three lines intersect at three points = 4 + 4 + 4 = 12.

A and B are called points in mathematical terms. A point representsa location in 2 dimensional space.
:
Ray is obtained when one end of a line segment is extended indefinitely.
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
Apolygonis any 2-dimensional closed figureformed with straight lines only.
In letter D, there is one line & one curve.
So, letter D is not a polygon.

Answer: Option B. -> parallel lines
:
B
If two lines don't have any points in common that means they don't have any point of intersection and hence they are parallel lines.
