Understanding Elementary Shapes Exercise 12.1 Solution

Question no – (1) 

Solution : 

We can’t compare precisely two line segments if their lengths are almost same.

Question no – (2)

Because wrong positioning of eye doesn’t affect here.

Question no – (4) 

Solution : 

Yes, we generalize this result for any line segment.

Question no – (5) 

Solution : 

= B does not lie between A and C

= CA + B = CB, A Lies between C and B

Question no – (6) 

Solution : 

No, M is not.

 Length of JN

= (4 – 0)

= 4 units = JN = NR

 Length of NR

= (8 – 4)

= 4 units

Question no – (7) 

Solution : 

Since, B is the midpoint of AC = AB = BC

Since, C is the midpoint of BD = BC = CD

AB = BC = CD

And, AB + BC + CD = AD

or, AB + AB + AB = AD

or, 3 AB = AD

= AB = 1/3 AD = BC = D

Question no – (8) 

Solution : 

Triangle :

= 3 + 4 = 7 > 5;

= 2 + 2 = 4 > 2

= 12 + 5 = 17 > 13

(b) the difference of any two sides is less than the 3 rd side.

= 3.6 – 3.2 = 0.4 < 2.8

= 3 – 1 = 2 < 2.5;

= 5 – 3 = 2 < 4

= 2 – 2 = 0 < 0

= 13 – 5 = 8 < 12
