Exercise 11 Page 859

Practice makes perfect
a A soccer ball can be modeled by the following sphere.

We are asked to name two lines containing Point B. A line in spherical geometry is a great circle. From the diagram above, we can tell that lines CF and AD are examples lines that contain B.

b Let's analyze the given ball.

We are asked to name a segment containing Point F. A segment is part of a line. From the diagram above we can tell that segment BG contains Point F. Keep in mind that there are other possible answers.

c Let's analyze the given ball.

We are asked to name a triangle. A triangle consists of three segments. Let's choose â–ł ABF for an answer. Keep in mind that there are other possible answers.

d Let's analyze the given ball.

We are asked to name a segment containing Point C. Let's choose LB for an answer. Keep in mind that there are other possible answers.

e Let's analyze the given ball.

We are asked to name a line. Let's choose CF for an answer. Keep in mind that there are other possible answers.

f Let's analyze the given ball.

We are asked to name two lines containing point A. Let's choose KF and BM for an answer. Keep in mind that there are other possible answers.
