Step-by-step solution for: Point, Line, Ray and Segment Worksheet | Grade1to6
Let's solve each question based on the given figure and definitions provided in the worksheet.
---
There are several lines, rays, and points shown:
- A horizontal line with points P, Q, and R (with arrows at both ends → it’s a line).
- A diagonal line from S to T passing through Q.
- A ray starting at Q going toward U (arrow only on one side).
- Points labeled: P, Q, R, S, T, U
---
A ray has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.
From the diagram:
- The ray starting at Q and going through U is QU (since arrow is at U end).
- Another ray could be QP — but wait! From point Q, if we go left toward P, that would be QP, but P is on a line extending both ways.
But let's analyze carefully:
- The line PQR is a straight line extending infinitely in both directions (arrows at P and R), so PQ and QR are parts of a line, not rays unless specified.
However, the ray from Q to U is clearly marked as a ray (only one arrow at U). So:
- Ray QU is one ray.
Now, look at QS or QT? The line ST passes through Q, but does it have an arrow?
Actually, ST is drawn as a line segment between S and T, passing through Q, but there are no arrows on S or T, so it's likely just a line segment ST.
So, the only ray shown is QU.
Wait — what about QP or QR? They are part of a line, but since the line extends infinitely, QP and QR can also be considered rays if we take Q as the endpoint.
But in standard notation, QP means a ray starting at Q and going through P, which is correct because the line goes to infinity beyond P.
So:
- Ray QP (from Q to P and beyond)
- Ray QR (from Q to R and beyond)
- Ray QU (from Q to U and beyond)
✔ So, any two rays could be:
- QP
- QU
> ✔ Answer i: QP and QU
---
Points are labeled with capital letters.
From the diagram:
- P, Q, R, S, T, U
✔ Answer ii: P, Q, R, S, T, U
---
A line segment has two endpoints.
Examples from the diagram:
- PQ (between P and Q)
- QR (between Q and R)
- QS (between Q and S)
- QT (between Q and T)
- SU? No, not connected directly.
But ST is a line passing through Q, so SQ, QT, ST are segments.
So possible line segments:
- PQ
- QR
- QS
- QT
- SU? No — not connected directly.
Wait: S to T passes through Q, so SQ, QT, and ST are valid segments.
So any two line segments:
- PQ
- QR
Or
- SQ
- QT
✔ Answer iii: PQ and QR (or any two such segments)
---
Look at QU: It starts at Q, goes through U, and has an arrow at U — meaning it extends infinitely in that direction.
This matches the definition of a ray.
✔ Answer iv: QU is a ray
---
Point Q is where multiple lines meet:
- Line PQR passes through it
- Line ST passes through it
- Ray QU starts from it
So Q is the point of intersection of multiple lines and rays.
But more specifically, Q is a point where lines intersect.
Since it's the common point for multiple lines, it's called the vertex when angles are formed.
But here, the question asks: “What is called Q?”
It's simply a point.
But in context, since multiple lines pass through it, it's an intersection point.
But the most accurate answer is: Q is a point.
But perhaps they want to know its role.
Looking at the figure:
- Q is where lines PQR, ST, and QU meet.
So Q is a point of intersection.
But since the question says "What is called Q?", the expected answer might be:
✔ Answer v: Q is a point
Or more precisely: Q is the point of intersection
But in basic geometry terms, Q is a point.
Since the worksheet is for Grade 6, the simplest answer is:
✔ Answer v: Q is a point

ii. All points: P, Q, R, S, T, U

Given Figure:
There are several lines, rays, and points shown:
- A horizontal line with points P, Q, and R (with arrows at both ends → it’s a line).
- A diagonal line from S to T passing through Q.
- A ray starting at Q going toward U (arrow only on one side).
- Points labeled: P, Q, R, S, T, U

i. Write the name of any two rays.
A ray has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.
From the diagram:
- The ray starting at Q and going through U is QU (since arrow is at U end).
- Another ray could be QP — but wait! From point Q, if we go left toward P, that would be QP, but P is on a line extending both ways.
But let's analyze carefully:
- The line PQR is a straight line extending infinitely in both directions (arrows at P and R), so PQ and QR are parts of a line, not rays unless specified.
However, the ray from Q to U is clearly marked as a ray (only one arrow at U). So:
- Ray QU is one ray.
Now, look at QS or QT? The line ST passes through Q, but does it have an arrow?
Actually, ST is drawn as a line segment between S and T, passing through Q, but there are no arrows on S or T, so it's likely just a line segment ST.
So, the only ray shown is QU.
Wait — what about QP or QR? They are part of a line, but since the line extends infinitely, QP and QR can also be considered rays if we take Q as the endpoint.
But in standard notation, QP means a ray starting at Q and going through P, which is correct because the line goes to infinity beyond P.
So:
- Ray QP (from Q to P and beyond)
- Ray QR (from Q to R and beyond)
- Ray QU (from Q to U and beyond)
✔ So, any two rays could be:
- QP
- QU
> ✔ Answer i: QP and QU

ii. Write the name of all points.
Points are labeled with capital letters.
From the diagram:
- P, Q, R, S, T, U
✔ Answer ii: P, Q, R, S, T, U

iii. Write any two line segment names.
A line segment has two endpoints.
Examples from the diagram:
- PQ (between P and Q)
- QR (between Q and R)
- QS (between Q and S)
- QT (between Q and T)
- SU? No, not connected directly.
But ST is a line passing through Q, so SQ, QT, ST are segments.
So possible line segments:
- PQ
- QR
- QS
- QT
- SU? No — not connected directly.
Wait: S to T passes through Q, so SQ, QT, and ST are valid segments.
So any two line segments:
- PQ
- QR
Or
- SQ
- QT
✔ Answer iii: PQ and QR (or any two such segments)

iv. What is called QU?
Look at QU: It starts at Q, goes through U, and has an arrow at U — meaning it extends infinitely in that direction.
This matches the definition of a ray.
✔ Answer iv: QU is a ray

v. What is called Q?
Point Q is where multiple lines meet:
- Line PQR passes through it
- Line ST passes through it
- Ray QU starts from it
So Q is the point of intersection of multiple lines and rays.
But more specifically, Q is a point where lines intersect.
Since it's the common point for multiple lines, it's called the vertex when angles are formed.
But here, the question asks: “What is called Q?”
It's simply a point.
But in context, since multiple lines pass through it, it's an intersection point.
But the most accurate answer is: Q is a point.
But perhaps they want to know its role.
Looking at the figure:
- Q is where lines PQR, ST, and QU meet.
So Q is a point of intersection.
But since the question says "What is called Q?", the expected answer might be:
✔ Answer v: Q is a point
Or more precisely: Q is the point of intersection
But in basic geometry terms, Q is a point.
Since the worksheet is for Grade 6, the simplest answer is:
✔ Answer v: Q is a point

i. Two rays: QP and QU
