Plane surface.
Can you draw a line on the surface of a sphere which lies wholly on it?
State which of the following statements are true (T) and which are false (F):
The minimum number of points of intersection of three lines is one.

Illustrate, if possible, one of the following with a rough diagram:
An open curve made up entirely of line segments.
An open curve made up entirely of line segments.
Lines p, q are coplanar. So are the lines p, r. Can we conclude that the lines p, q, r are coplanar?
From write concurrent lines and their points of concurrence.
Using a ruler, check whether the following points given in collinear or not:
- D, A and C
- A, B and C
- A, B and E
- B, C and E
Draw a polygon and shade its interior. Also draw its diagonals.
In name:
- Five line segments.
- Five rays.
- Non-intersecting line segments.
Lines p, q and r are concurrent. Also lines p, s and t are concurrent. Is it always true that the lines q, r and s will be concurrent? Is it always true for lines q, r and t?
From write:
- All paris of parallel lines.
- All pairs of intersecting lines.
- Lines whose point of intersection is I.
- Lines whose point of intersection is D.
- Lines whose point of intersection is E.
- Lines whose point of intersection is A.
- Collinear points.
There are a number of ways by which we can visualise a portion of a line. State whether the following represent a portion of a line of not:
- A piece of elastic stretched to the breaking point.
- Wire between two electric poles.
- The line thread by which a spider lowers itself.
Mark four points A, B, C and D in your notebook such that no three of them are collinear. Draw all the lines which join them in pairs as shown.
- How many such lines can be drawn?
- Write the names of these lines.
- Name the lines which are concurrent at A.
