Introduction to Euclid’s Geometry EXERCISE 5.1 Solutions
- Q1(i): Which of the following statements are true and which are false? Give reasons for your answers. (i) Only one line can pass through a single point.
- Q1(ii): Which of the following statements are true and which are false? Give reasons for your answers. (ii) There are an infinite number of lines which pass through two distinct points.
- Q1(iii): Which of the following statements are true and which are false? Give reasons for your answers. (iii) A terminated line can be produced indefinitely on both the sides.
- Q1(iv): Which of the following statements are true and which are false? Give reasons for your answers. (iv) If two circles are equal, then their radii are equal.
- Q1(v): Which of the following statements are true and which are false? Give reasons for your answers. (v) In Fig. 5.9, if $AB = PQ$ and $PQ = XY$, then $AB = X
- Q2(i): Give a definition for each of the following terms. Are there other terms that need to be defined first? What are they, and how might you define them? (i) parallel lines
- Q2(ii): Give a definition for each of the following terms. Are there other terms that need to be defined first? What are they, and how might you define them? (ii) perpendicular lines
- Q2(iii): Give a definition for each of the following terms. Are there other terms that need to be defined first? What are they, and how might you define them? (iii) line segment
- Q2(iv): Give a definition for each of the following terms. Are there other terms that need to be defined first? What are they, and how might you define them? (iv) radius of a circle
- Q2(v): Give a definition for each of the following terms. Are there other terms that need to be defined first? What are they, and how might you define them? (v) square
- Q3: Consider two ‘postulates’ given below: (i) Given any two distinct points $A$ and $B$, there exists a third point $C$ which is in between $A$ and $B$. (ii) There exist at least three points that are not on the same line. Do these postulates contain any undefined terms? Are these postulates consistent? Do they follow from Euclid’s postulates? Explain.
- Q4: If a point $C$ lies between two points $A$ and $B$ such that $AC = BC$, then prove that $AC = \frac{1}{2}AB$. Explain by drawing the figure.
- Q5: In Question 4, point $C$ is called a mid-point of line segment $AB$. Prove that every line segment has one and only one mid-point.
- Q6: In Fig. 5.10, if $AC = BD$, then prove that $AB = CD$.
- Q7: Why is Axiom 5, in the list of Euclid’s axioms, considered a ‘universal truth’? (Note that the question is not about the fifth postulate.)

I specialize in Science, Mathematics, Social Science, and English, ensuring students develop a thorough understanding of each subject rather than relying on rote learning. My teaching methodology begins with strengthening fundamental concepts, followed by chapter-wise practice, NCERT-based learning, important board questions, competency-based questions, case study questions, and previous years' board papers. Regular assignments, periodic tests, and detailed performance analysis help students identify weak areas and improve consistently. I provide personalized attention to every student by adapting my teaching style to their learning pace. My classes include interactive discussions, doubt-clearing sessions, revision plans, and exam-oriented strategies that build confidence and improve time management. My objective is to help students not only score high marks in the Class 10 Board Examination but also develop strong analytical and problem-solving skills that prepare them for higher secondary education. Through consistent guidance, disciplined practice, and individual mentoring, I strive to make learning enjoyable, effective, and result-oriented.
