Drawing Straight Lines
We have already learnt how to trace a shape using bottoms of the
solids. Here, we use straight-edged object like ruler to draw a straight
line.
A 15-centimetre scale is available in our geometry box.

We can use it to draw a line of the given length below 15 cm.
Draw a line of length 5 cm.
Step 1: Keep your scale on a sheet of paper.
Step 2: Make a dot (say, A) with the mark of 0 on the scale using a
pencil. Also, mark another dot (say, B) on 5.
