Draw any line segment, say AB. Take any point C lying in between A and B.Measure the length of AB, BC and AC.Is AB =AC+CB?


We take a line AB such that point C lies between A and B.


 On measuring the lengths of AC, CB, and AB using a ruler, we find that

AB = 7.3 cm

AC = 2.7 cm

CB = 4.6 cm

Now AC + CB = 2.7 cm + 4.6 cm = 7.3 cm = AB

So AB = AC + CB
