Question

Choose the correct option to close the given shape without changing the direction of the shape.
(HINT: There can be only one correct answer.)

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is B

$\text{Say:}$Let’s read the question and observe the given images.

$\text{Ask:}$
$\bullet$ How will you identify an open shape?
Ans: The shape in which there are gaps left between its lines and are not connected end-to-end can be identified as open shapes.

$\bullet$ How can we close an open shape?
Ans: To close the shape, we should be able to take a pencil and trace the shape all the way back to where we started, without any breaks.

$\bullet$ Which of the options can be used to close the shape? Why?
Ans: Option B, because if we place the line on one of the points of the gaps, it will reach the other point, and thus close the gap.

$\text{Say:}$Let us try to close the shape using the options one by one on the whiteboard.

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.

$\text{WB:}$If required, use the whiteboard to draw the open shape and the options to find the correct one to close the shape as shown.
