Question

Take three noncollinear points A,B , and C on a page of your notebook.Join AB,BC and CA.What figure do you get?

a) the side opposite to < C
b) the angle opposite to the side BC
c) the vertex opposite to the side CA
d) the side opposite to the vertex B

Answer 1

The figure obtained by joining three noncollinear points A, B, and C is a triangle, with side AC opposite to angle ∠C and vertex B opposite to side CA.

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure obtained by joining three noncollinear points A, B, and C

When three noncollinear points A, B, and C are joined by line segments AB, BC, and CA, the figure obtained is a triangle.

Identifying the options in the question

a) the side opposite to < C:

This refers to the side AC.

b) the angle opposite to the side BC:

This refers to the angle ∠ACB.

c) the vertex opposite to the side CA: This refers to the vertex B.

d) the side opposite to the vertex B: This refers to the side AC.

Correct options

The correct answers are:

a) the side opposite to < C:

The side AC

c) the vertex opposite to the side CA:

The vertex B

So, the figure obtained by joining the points A, B, and C is a triangle, with side AC opposite to angle ∠C and vertex B opposite to side CA.
