Question

e 5) Draw a line segment 14.5 cm long. Cut
off from this, a line segment 7.9 cm long
such that both line segments have a
common end point. Measure the length
of the remaining part of the original line
segment​

Answer 1

Answer:

Length of line which ritu drew,

= 15 cm 4 mm = (15 × 100) + 4 mm = 1504 mm

Ritu erased the portion = 7 cm 6 mm = (7 × 100) + 6 = 706 mm

∴ The length of the erased line segment = (1504 – 706) mm = 798 mm.
