Question(1) For each of the following descriptions, rewrite the statement using geometric notation and draw each figure. (a) Point BB on ray WQW Q. (b) Line RNR N bisects line segment QTQ T. (C) Line FGF G is parallel to line TRT R. (2) Point MM is on QR.QR=20 cm\overline{Q R} . Q R=20 \mathrm{~cm}. If MR=12 cmM R=12 \mathrm{~cm}, then what is QMQ M ? (3) Draw a counterexample for each conditional statement. (a) If FGGH\overline{F G} \cong \overline{G H}, then point GG is on FH\overline{F H}. (b) If ABundefined\overleftrightarrow{A B} and CD\overline{C D} are not parallel, then they must intersect.

Studdy Solution
(b) Provide a counterexample for the statement: "If ABundefined\overleftrightarrow{AB} and CD\overline{CD} are not parallel, then they must intersect."
Consider ABundefined\overleftrightarrow{AB} and CD\overline{CD} as skew lines in 3D space. Draw the counterexample where the lines are not parallel and do not intersect.
\begin{array}{c} \begin{tikzpicture} \draw (0,0) -- (4,0); \draw (1,-1) -- (1,3); \node at (0,-0.3) {A}; \node at (4,-0.3) {B}; \node at (1,-1.3) {C}; \node at (1,3.3) {D}; \end{tikzpicture} \end{array}
Solution:
1. (a) Point BB on ray WQundefined\overrightarrow{WQ}: BWQundefinedB \in \overrightarrow{WQ} (b) Line RNRN bisects line segment QT\overline{QT}: RN bisects QTRN \text{ bisects } \overline{QT} (c) Line FGFG is parallel to line TRTR: FGTRFG \parallel TR
2. QM=8cmQM = 8 \, \mathrm{cm}
3. (a) Counterexample for FGGH\overline{FG} \cong \overline{GH} with GG not on FH\overline{FH}. (b) Counterexample for ABundefined\overleftrightarrow{AB} and CD\overline{CD} not parallel and not intersecting.
