Solution
The correct option is A
Mark a point on a piece of paper using Pencil and call it A.
Place Zero point of the ruler on the point on the marked point A.
Use a Ruler to mark a point at 5 inches From A and name it as B and make a Dot at B.
Connect both the point A and B using Ruler.
We get a line segment of 5 inches.
This option is incorrect because we don't have an end point at B, hence, we don't know how long this line is at that end.
Similarly, for the third option.
There are no end points at all. Hence, we cannot determine the exact length.
