6. A squirrel wants to eat the grains quickly. Help the Squirrel to find the shortest way to reach the grains. ( Use your scale to measure length of the line segments)



AB + BC + CD + DE

(1.7 + 2.2 + 2 + 1.7) cm = 7.6 cm

AG + GF + FE

(2.2 + 1.5 + 1.5 + 2.3) cm = 7.5 cm

AH + HI + IJ + JE

(2.5 + 2 + 0.7 + 2.7) cm = 7.9 cm

The shortest way to reach the grains is the way from A through G, F and reach E.

Seetha wakes up at 5.20 am = 5 hours 20 minutes

Time taken to get ready = 35 minutes

Traveling Time = 15 minutes

The time she reached the railway station = 5 hours 70 minutes

= 6 hours 10 minutes

The train departure time = 6 hours

So, Seetha will not catch the train
