Lines & Angles — solved examples for Class 6 CBSE

Example 1easy

Which of the following best describes a point in geometry?

A)A figure with length and width
B)A specific location that has no dimension
C)A path extending infinitely in one direction
D)A straight path with two endpoints

Step-by-step solution

A point is a fundamental concept in geometry. It represents an exact position or location in space.
By definition, a point has no dimension; it has no length, width, or depth. It is often represented by a dot.

Answer: A specific location that has no dimension

Example 2medium

Which of the following statements correctly defines a 'line segment'?

A)A part of a line with two definite endpoints.
B)A straight path that extends endlessly in one direction.
C)A straight path that extends endlessly in both directions.
D)A specific location or position in space.

Step-by-step solution

A point is a specific location.
A line extends endlessly in both directions.
A ray extends endlessly in one direction from a starting point.
A line segment is a part of a line that has two distinct endpoints, meaning it has a definite length.

Answer: A part of a line with two definite endpoints.

Example 3hard

Imagine 5 distinct points on a plane. If 3 of these points are collinear, and no other 3 points are collinear, how many unique straight lines can be drawn by joining any two of these points?

A)8
B)9
C)10
D)11

Step-by-step solution

First, calculate the number of lines if all 5 points were non-collinear. This is given by the combination formula n(n-1)/2.
$5 × (5-1) / 2 = 5 × 4 / 2 = 10 unique lines.$
Next, consider the 3 collinear points. If they were non-collinear, they would form 3 × (3-1) / 2 = 3 lines. However, since they are collinear, they form only 1 line.
So, we subtract the lines 'lost' due to collinearity (3 lines) and add back the single line they actually form.
$Total lines = 10 (from 5 points) - 3 (lines lost from 3 collinear points) + 1 (the single line formed by the 3 collinear points) = 8 lines.$

Answer: 8

2. B)Line segment
3. C)Ray
4. D)Line
Show answer
Answer: Line
Hint: Focus on the phrase 'goes on forever in both directions'.
Q4.medium
A carpenter is building a wooden frame. He joins two pieces of wood at a corner to form an angle that looks exactly like the corner of a square tile. What type of angle has he formed?
1. A)Acute angle
2. B)Right angle
3. C)Obtuse angle
4. D)Straight angle
Show answer
Answer: Right angle
Hint: Think about the angle formed at the corner of a square or a book. What is its measure?
Q5.medium
If an angle measures 75°, which of the following statements is true about it?
1. A)It is an obtuse angle.
2. B)It is a right angle.
3. C)It is an acute angle.
4. D)It is a straight angle.
Show answer
Answer: It is an acute angle.
Hint: Remember the definitions of different types of angles based on their measure relative to 90° and 180°.
Q6.medium
Two lines are drawn on a paper such that they never intersect, no matter how far they are extended. What type of lines are these?
1. A)Intersecting lines
2. B)Perpendicular lines
3. C)Concurrent lines
4. D)Parallel lines
Show answer
Answer: Parallel lines

Q7.hard
Line P is perpendicular to Line Q. Line Q is parallel to Line R. Which of the following statements must be true?
1. A)Line P is parallel to Line R.
2. B)Line P is perpendicular to Line R.
3. C)Line P intersects Line R but not necessarily perpendicularly.
4. D)Line R is perpendicular to Line Q.
Show answer
Answer: Line P is perpendicular to Line R.
Hint: Visualize the lines. If Line P makes a right angle with Line Q, and Line Q runs in the same direction as Line R, what angle will Line P make with Line R?
Q8.hard
A clock shows the time as 3:00. What is the measure of the reflex angle formed by the hour hand and the minute hand?
1. A)90°
2. B)180°
3. C)270°
4. D)300°
Show answer
Answer: 270°
Hint: First, determine the smaller angle between the hands at 3:00. Then, remember that a reflex angle is the larger angle, which is greater than 180° but less than 360°.
Q9.hard
Rohan observes an angle measuring 181° and classifies it as an obtuse angle. His friend, Priya, says it's a straight angle. Who is correct, and why?
1. A)Rohan is correct, as 181° is greater than 90°.
2. B)Priya is correct, as it is close to 180°.
3. C)Neither is correct; it is a reflex angle.
4. D)Neither is correct; it is a complete angle.
Show answer
Answer: Neither is correct; it is a reflex angle.
Hint: Recall the precise definitions for each type of angle: acute, right, obtuse, straight, reflex, and complete.
