(Uzaira and Shahmir are looking at different countries on the globe.) Uzaira: See, there are lines between the different countries on this globe. Are such lines also there on the earth? Shahmir: There must be. They are there on the map of India in this book. See, there are lines between the different states too. The above text is used to introduce the latitudes and longitudes to students of grade 5. Which of these questions would help Uzaira and Shahmir understand these lines better?

Correct Answer Why do you use a graph book with lines, to plot points in geometry?

Globe is a model of earth which represents earth along with various physical features like continents, oceans, mountains, etc. It has two types of imaginary lines latitudes and longitudes, which help in pointing out the exact location. Key PointsThe example "why do you use a graph book with lines, to plot points in geometry?" would help Uzaira and Shahmir understand these lines better because

  • They would know that the lines on the globe are imaginary and they will not be really on the earth.
  • They get to about the purpose of those lines.
  • They can relate that as we use a graph book with lines, to plot points in geometry exactly, in the same way, that imaginary lines are used to plot the exact location of a place on the earth.
  • They can conclude that these lines make the task of finding routes from one place to another place even if they are not real.

​Hence the question "why do you use a graph book with lines, to plot points in geometry?" would help Uzaira and Shahmir understand these lines better.

Additional Information

  1.  White line: White lines running in the middle of the road indicate that you must not change lanes and should stay in the lane you are already in.
  2. A Grid is a setting on your camera that shows lines/grids, so you will be able to assess the proportions of your subject.
  3. Ruled paper in the notebook (or lined paper) is writing paper printed with lines as a guide for handwriting.

There are five friends F, G, K, O, and P, who got different grades A, B, C, D, E in an examination, where A grade means lowest and E means highest grades. F neither got highest nor lowest grade. Number of peoples having higher grade than K and number of peoples having lower grade than K are equal. O gets the lowest grade among them. G does not get highest grade but his grade is better than K. Who got grade B?
