4. Satellite Images: Satellite images are images of Earth collected by imaging satellites
operated by governments and businesses around the world. Satellite imaging
companies sell images by licensing them to governments and businesses such as
Apple Maps and Google Maps. It should not be confused for astronomy images
collected by space telescope.
Barun lives in Jaipur in Vaishali. Satellite image of his colony is shown in given
figure. In this view, his house is pointed out by a flag, which is situated at the
point of intersection of x and y - axes. If he goes 2 cm east and 3 cm north from the
house, then he reaches to a grocery store, If he goes 4 cm west and 6 cm south
from the house, then he reaches to his office. If he goes 6 cm east and 8 cm south
from the house, then he reaches to a food court. If he goes 6 cm west and 8 cm
north from the house, he reaches to a his kid’s school.
5. Morning assembly is an integral part of the school’s schedule. Almost all the
schools conduct morning assemblies which include prayers, information of latest
happenings, inspiring thoughts,
speech, national anthem, etc. A good
school is always particular about their
morning assembly schedule. Morning
assembly is important for a child’s
development. It is essential to
understand that morning assembly is
not just about standing in long queues
and singing prayers or national
anthem, but it’s something beyond just
prayers. All the activities carried out in morning assembly by the school staff and
students have a great influence in every point of life. The positive effects of
attending school assemblies can be felt throughout life.
Have you noticed that in school assembly you always stand in row and column and
this make a coordinate system. Suppose a school have 100 students and they all
assemble in prayer in 10 rows as given below.

6. Carpooling: It is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person travels
in a car, and prevents the need for others to have to drive to a location themselves.
By having more people using one vehicle, carpooling reduces each person’s travel
costs such as: fuel costs, tolls, and the stress of driving. Carpooling is also a more
environmentally friendly and sustainable way to travel as sharing journeys reduces
air pollution, carbon emissions, traffic congestion on the roads, and the need for
parking spaces.
Three friends Amar, Bandhu and Chakradev lives in societies represented by the
points A, B and C respectively. They all work in offices located in a same building
represented by the point O. Since they all go to same building every day, they
decided to do carpooling to save money on petrol. Based on the above information,
answer the following questions.
8. A garden is in the shape of rectangle. Gardener grew sapling of Ashoka tree on the

10th. They made a chart for it which looks as the above figure.
