ncert solution class 6 maths exercise 5.5
Answers
1. Which of the following are models for perpendicular lines:
(a) The adjacent edges of a table top.
(b) The lines of a railway track.
(c) The line segments forming the letter ‘L’.
(d) The letter V.
Solutions:
(a) The adjacent edges of a table top are perpendicular to each other.
(b) The lines of a railway track are parallel to each other.
(c) The line segments forming the letter ‘L’ are perpendicular to each other
(d) The sides of letter V are inclined forming an acute angle.
Therefore (a) and (c) are models for perpendicular lines.

3. There are two set squares in your box. What are the measures of the angles that are formed at their corners? Do they have any angle measure that is common?
Solutions:
The measure of angles in one set square are 300, 600 and 900
The other set square has a measure of angles 450, 450 and 900
Yes, the angle of measure 900 is common in between them
4.Solutions:
(a) Yes, since, CE = 2 units and EG = 2 units respectively
(b) Yes. Since, CE = EG as both are of 2 units. Hence PE bisect CG
(c) NCERT Solutions for Class 6 Maths Chapter 5 Exercise 5.5 - 7and NCERT Solutions for Class 6 Maths Chapter 5 Exercise 5.5 - 8are the line segments for which PE is the perpendicular bisector
(d) (i) True. Since AC = 2 units and FG = 1 unit
∴ AC > FG
(ii) True because both are of 1 unit
(iii) True. Since, BC = 1 unit and EH = 3 units
∴ BC < EH
