There are Four methods of finding relation between the lengths of line segment.

Explanation:

1.Comparison by observation:

  • Two line segments AB and CD.
  • We can clearly see that line segment CD > AB just by looking. However, if the difference in their lengths is relatively slight, it is not always achievable.

2.Comparison by using a divider:

  • A divider is a geometrical instrument having two arms that are linked together at one end by a knob.
  • Metallic needles adorn the other ends of the two arms. To compare the supplied line segments AB and CD, we position the needle of one divider hand at point C and carefully open the other arm so that the needle of the other arms lands at point D.
  • Now slowly elevate the divider so that the opening of the two arms remains the same. One needle should be placed at point A of line segment AB, while the other arm should be free to fall at any point on AB. There are now three options available to you.
  • The other arm falls exactly at B, then AB = CD,The other arm falls between A and B, then AB > CD.The other end falls away from B, then AB < CD.

3.Comparison by Tracing:

  • The tracing approach can also be used to compare line segments AB and CD.
  • Trace one of the line segments so that point C of the traced segment CD is the same as point A of line segment AB.

4.Measurement of line segments:

  • A line segment is a segment that makes up a line. It has a definite length, no breadth, and no thickness, and it has two endpoints.
  • A line segment's length is a distance that can be measured in metres, centimetres, millimetres, and other units.
  • We use a scale with centimetre marks on one edge and inch marks on the other to measure line segments.
  • Keep in mind that each centimetre is divided into ten equal parts, each of which is referred to as a millimetre (mm).
