\[\overrightarrow{\text{OA}}\] and \[\overrightarrow{\text{OB}}\] form an angle AOB. 0 is the vertex of \[\angle \text{AOB}\]and \[\overrightarrow{\text{OA}}\]and \[\overrightarrow{\text{OB}}\] are its arms or sides.
Z AOB is the same as Z BOA. Only vertex can also be used to denote an angle. Thus ZA means the angle whose vertex is A.
Types of Angles:
(a) An angle whose measure is between 0° and 90° is called an acute angle.
(b) An angle whose measure is 90° is called a right angle.
(c) An angle whose measure is between 90° and 180° is called obtuse angle.
The centre of a circle is usually denoted as 0.
The net of a cube has 6 squares.
The net of a cuboid has 6 rectangles.
Human body has the following systems performing certain functions:
Rib Cage
Ribs make a cage of bones around the chest which is called rib cage. It protects our internal organs. Generally adults have 12 pairs of ribs. There is a long bone at the centre of the chest, which holds the ribs in place, called sternum. Ribs are attached to the backbone. Last two ribs are not attached to the sternum and are known as floating ribs. These floating ribs are attached to the backbone.
Backbone
It is made up of 33-ring shaped small bones called vertebrae. Backbone is also called as vertebral column. It is a hollow tube through which spinal cord runs.
Limbs
All human beings have two pairs of limbs: the forelimbs (arms) and hindlimbs (legs). Both forelimb and hindlimb is made up of 30 bones each. Thigh bone or femur is the longest bone in the body.
Note: The smallest bone of the body called stapes is present in the ear.
