please help me with these 5 math questions ASAP 10 points?
1. When looking at a map, the arrows indicating north and south are best represented by which geometric figure?
A) Line
B) Line segment
C) Point
D) Ray
2. Which of the following geometric figures has a measurable length?
A) Line
B) Line segment
C) Point
D) Ray
3. Which of the following has exactly one endpoint?
A) Line
B) Ray
C) Point
D) Parallel
4. Which of the following real-world situations is best described as a ray?
A) The edge of a picture frame.
B The light moving out from a lighthouse.
C) The center of a dartboard.
D) The 50 yard line of a football field.
5. How can the pupil of an eye best be described?
A) Line
B) Line segment
C) Point
D) Ray
6.
A line is a straight line that never ends. A line segment is part of that line, and ends on both sides (like if you drew a line on a piece of paper; two end points). A point is a theoretical point on a plane that isn't actually visible, but is represented by a dot. A ray is a combination of a line segment and a line, and has one end point while the other side goes on and on forever.
1. D (Because the arrow indicates that the line goes on and on forever.)
2. B (It's the only one that has an end point on both sides, and a point doesn't have a length)
3. B (One end point, one side that goes on forever.)
4. B (The end point is the lighthouse where the light comes out of, and the "go on forever" part is the light that comes out.
5. C (The pupil is relatively small and circular, so it's closest to a point.)

How to Choose the Correct Birdhouse for your Landscape
<!-- @page { margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } -->
There are such a variety out there these days to choose from. There are wood houses for chickadees, finches, blue birds and various wild birds. Robins and Blue Jays love to make their own nests out of sticks, grass and moss.
Other types of houses are the edible kind. Where there is seed all over the house. You never need to fill the birdhouse with seed. It is all ready to go. Just hang and watch the birds come flocking. They first construct it of wood. Then they apply various types of bird seed, sunflower seed, ornamental corn, popcorn and corn grits. They even have some with Dried Apple and Orange slices. All you would have to do is hang it, giving the birds a cozy and warm home and food without the fuss. Blue birds, sparrows, chickadees, wrens and various other wild birds would love this type of house.
Suet feeders are kind of a neat idea. That way you can keep away predators. Bird Cookies are really beautiful, too. They come in all different shapes like, watering cans, apples, cats, giraffes, turtles, stars and squirrel's. Many more varieties are available, too.
There are even houses that are made of stone. That must take a long time to make one of those. I bet they are expensive. The other day, in someone's yard, I saw a lighthouse built out of stone. What an awesome sight that was. There was a lot of time put into making that one. The light on the top even worked.
Bird watching is fun for the whole family. It gives you solitude, health, family, satisfaction as well as companionship. Nature can be so beautiful. Below are some things to look for in a birdhouse or feeder.
-
When looking for a birdhouse, look for one that has the proper dimensions. Different types of birds have different requirements. Some things to look for are to check the birdhouse specifications, such as the inside area, the entrance hole, the height of the whole from the floor. These are just some of the things that attract a bird to your feeder.
-
Make sure it has enough ventilation and a drainage whole or slats to prevent overheating or drowning of baby birds.
-
Use proper materials when building or buying. Use only non-toxic materials. You would not want to danger the birds.
-
Make sure you use a sturdy hanger as well.
-
Keep in mind where you are going to place the birdhouse, what type of squirrel shield you are going to use, and that the cost is within your budget.
-
If you really want to attract more birds, get a birdbath. Birds love birdbaths, especially when it is warm outside.
You could create your own birdhouse today? You can find a kit that is pretty simple to put together or you can go to the extreme and make a great project out of it. Another option is to just buy one and enjoy.
Just remember some birds will avoid certain birdhouses since they can be very fussy about where they nest. Sometimes you just have to change the location of you feeder. Make sure you put your feeder in a safe place, away from people.
