The number of line segments determined by three non-collinear points is:
AnswerYou need two points to draw a line segment. If the points $A, B$ and are non-collinear, we can draw the lines: $A B, A C$, $B A, B C, C A, C B$. Now, line $A B$ is the same as line $B A$, same for lines $A C$ and $C A$ and $B C$ and $C B$. So, the lines are $A B, B C$, and $AC 3$ lines only.

Which of the following is a false statement?
AnswerCorrect option: C. $\text{Ray }\overrightarrow{\text{AB}}=\text{ray}\ \overrightarrow{\text{BA}}.$
Option $(a)$ is true, since we can pass an infinite number of lines through a given point.
Option $(b)$ is true, since a unique line can be drawn to pass through two given points.
Consider option $(c)$.
A ray is a line segment that extends indefinitely in one direction as shown below.
$\text{Ray }\overrightarrow{\text{AB}}=\text{ray}\ \overrightarrow{\text{BA}}$ is a false statement since clearly the lines extend indefinitely.

Pythagoras was influenced by:
AnswerPythagoras of Samos is one of the most famous names in the history of mathematics and is recognized as the first true mathematician. When Pythagoras was $18$, he visited Miletus - an ancient Greek city on the western coast of Anatolia, where he met Thales - the first known Greek philosopher and scientist. By that time Thales was very old and is not believed to have taught Pythagoras a great deal. However, it was this meeting which triggered his interest in the science of mathematics and astronomy.
