Question
_______ lines pass through the same point.
- parallel
- intersecting
- line segment
- ray
Hint:
Two or more lines that meet at a single point are known as intersecting lines.
The correct answer is: intersecting
GIVEN-
The given lines pass through the same point.
TO FIND-
Nature of the given lines.
SOLUTION-
We know that intersecting lines pass through a common point and
We are given that the given lines also pass through the same point.
Hence, the given lines are intersecting lines.
FINAL ANSWER-
Option 'b' i.e. 'intersecting' is the correct answer to the given question.
1. Parallel lines are the lines that are always equidistant from each other and never meet each other.
Hence, parallel lines cannot be the write answer.
2. Line segment is a part of a line that has both ends closed and defined whereas ray is a part of a line that has one end closed and extends infinitely from the other end.
Hence, there is no scope of point of intersection.

A straight path with points in a plane that continues without end in both directions.
A path is not a point but a collection of points in a straight path. Hence, option d is eliminated.
Also, a line segment and a ray are both parts of a line where a line segment has fixed or definite ends on both sides whereas a ray has one end fixed and the other end extends infinitely.
Hence, options b & c are also eliminated.
