Give three examples of sentences which are not statements. Give reasons for the answers.
The three examples of sentences, which are not statements, are as follows.
(i) He is a doctor.
It is not evident from the sentence as to whom ‘he’ is referred to. Therefore, it is not a statement.
(ii) Geometry is difficult.
This is not a statement because for some people, geometry can be easy and for some others, it can be difficult.
(iii) Where is she going?
This is a question, which also contains ‘she’, and it is not evident as to who ‘she’ is. Hence, it is not a statement.
Solve 24x < 100, when
(i) x is a natural number. (ii) x is an integer.
Draw a quadrilateral in the Cartesian plane, whose vertices are (– 4, 5), (0, 7), (5, – 5) and (– 4, –2). Also, find its area.

(ii) repetition of the digits is not allowed?
