Question

Does apiece of chalk look like a cone or a cylinder?why do you think so?

Answer 1

Answer:

A piece of chalk looks like a cylinder because it does not have a pointed end like a cone.

Answer 2

A piece of chalk looks like a cylinder.

Explanation:

Given, shapes are cone, cylinder. And a piece of chalk.

We have to compare the piece of chalk with given shapes and decide which shape matches with shape of piece of chalk.

Now, let us compare piece of chalk with cone first.

Cone will have one flat surface as base and one sharp point edge. But a piece of chalk will have two flat surfaces as bases and remaining surface is all curved between these two base surfaces. And when we see a piece of chalk it does not have a sharp point edge like cone

Hence, a piece of chalk looks like a cylinder.
