In-text Questions

Answer: The points that are 4 cm away from point 'P' form a circle with 'P' as its center and a radius of 4 cm.

A circle is the set of all points in a plane that are at a fixed distance (radius) from a fixed point (center).

- Draw a point 'P' in your notebook. This will be the center of your figure.
- Take a ruler and a compass. Place the metal tip of the compass on the zero mark of the ruler.
- Open the compass such that the pencil tip is exactly at the 4 cm mark on the ruler. This sets the radius to 4 cm.
- Place the metal tip of the compass on point 'P' in your notebook.
- Rotate the compass slowly, keeping the metal tip fixed at 'P', to draw a continuous curve. This curve is a circle.
- All the points on this curve are exactly 4 cm away from point 'P'. You can verify this by taking any point on the circle, measuring its distance from 'P' with a ruler, and confirming it is 4 cm.
