Question 1 of 8intermediate🔧 ApplyShort Answer3 marks

Which of the following alphabet cutouts can be made by just drawing half (1/2) or quarter (1/4) of the letter? You can do it by drawing lines of symmetry on the letters. E N X T K V O

Correct Answer

Letters that can be made by drawing half (1/2): E (horizontal line of symmetry) T (vertical line of symmetry) V (vertical line of symmetry) O (vertical or horizontal line of symmetry)

Letters that can be made by drawing quarter (1/4): X (two lines of symmetry - vertical and horizontal)

Letters that cannot be made by half or quarter: N (no line of symmetry) K (no line of symmetry in standard font)

Explanation

The chapter explains that letters with one line of symmetry can be cut by drawing half the letter along the fold. Letters like A and H are examples given. Letter X has two lines of symmetry (vertical and horizontal), so it can be made by drawing just one-fourth of the letter by folding the paper into one-fourth.

Solution Steps

  1. Identify letters with one line of symmetry (can be made by drawing half).

  2. Identify letters with two lines of symmetry (can be made by drawing quarter).

  3. Identify letters with no line of symmetry (cannot be made by half or quarter).
