(1.11)Introduction:
• Write a statement describing the overall purpose of the project.
• What is the key challenge or problem the project is aiming to address?

* A LINE HAS NO END POINTS, A LINE SEGMENT HAS TWO END POINT , AND AN ANGLE IS FORMED WHEN LINES OR LINE SEGMENT MEET . THIS IS WHERE WE DIVE INTO THE WORLD OF GEOMETRY.
The intention of this Project is to allow Class VII Students to Explore the following topics
• Complementary Angles
• Supplementary Angles
• Adjacent Angles
• Linear Pair
• Vertically Opposite Angles
• Pairs Of Lines
• Transversal
• Angles Made by a Transversal
• Transversal of Parallel Lines
• Checking for Parallel Lines
