Question 1.
Measure the lengths of the given line segments.

Solution:
i) \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\) = 2.4 cm
ii) \(\overline{\mathrm{PQ}}\) = 1.5 cm
iii) \(\overline{\mathrm{KL}}\) = 1cm, \(\overline{\mathrm{LM}}\) = 1 cm
\(\overline{\mathrm{KM}}=\overline{\mathrm{KL}}+\overline{\mathrm{LM}}\) =1 + 1 = 2 cm
Question 2.

i) AB = 6.3 centimeters ii) MN = 3.6 centimeters

Question 3.
Draw PQ = 4.6 cm and extend upto R such that PR = 6 cm.
Solution:

\(\overline{\mathrm{PR}}=\overline{\mathrm{PQ}}+\overline{\mathrm{QR}}\) = 4.6 + 1.4 = 6 cm
Question 4.
Draw a line segment \(\overline{\mathrm{OP}}\) with certain length and mark a point Q on it.
Check whether \(\overline{\mathrm{OP}}-\overline{\mathrm{PQ}}=\overline{\mathrm{OQ}}\)
Solution:

Given, \(\overline{\mathrm{OP}}\) = 8 cm; \(\overline{\mathrm{PQ}}\) = 3 cm
\(\overline{\mathrm{OP}}-\overline{\mathrm{PQ}}\) = 8cm – 3cm = 5 cm = \(\overline{\mathrm{OQ}}\)
∴ \(\overline{\mathrm{OP}}-\overline{\mathrm{PQ}}=\overline{\mathrm{OQ}}\) = 5cm
