The city of stars, Quezon city which has its population at about 3 million, which is
then part of a greater whole, the National Capital Region (NCR) or Metro Manila
which then has a total population of 12,877,253 according to the 2015 National
Census. Thus, we can determine that NCR or Metro Manila is greater than the part,
which is Quezon City in terms of population.
The whole of NCR / Metro Manila (12,877,253) > Quezon City (3 Million) (Part)

The Euclidean Postulate: “One can draw a straight line from any point to any point.”
The installment of a curtain pole involves inserting the pole from a metal bracket
from point a (metal bracket 1) to point b (metal bracket 2). If you then insert the pole,
it will make a straight line from point a, to point b.
3. State other possible applications of elliptic geometry not stated in the material. (Real world
application)
Elliptic Geometry
When slicing a potato into quarter slices for a delicious dish, the slices would then
intersect with one another to show the concept of elliptic geometry that all straight
lines on a sphere intersects therefore no parallel lines are to be found.
4. State other possible applications of hyperbolic geometry not stated in the material. (Real
world application)
5. Referring to figure 1, find the following given that ∠1 = 40° and ∠5 = 150°
a. angle opposite to ∠1 = 40°
b. angle opposite to ∠4 = 30°
c. TRUE or FALSE: ∠6 < ∠2 = TRUE
d. TRUE or FALSE: ∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = ∠4 + ∠5 + ∠6 = FALSE
SOLUTION:
∠1 = 40° ∠4 = 30°
∠2 = 40° ∠5 = 30°
+ ∠3 = 140° ∠6 = 150°
220° 210°

1. Given lists of different body temperatures in Fahrenheit. Give its frequency distribution
table with class interval, then draw/give the graph and find the mean, median and mode.
Show your solutions. You can use MS Excel for frequency distribution and graph. (40
points).
N = 30
HIGHEST VALUE= 100.8
LOWEST VALUE = 96.3
MEAN (X̅)
FORMULA ∑X ÷ N
2947.5
÷ 30
= 98.25
FORMULA N÷2
30
÷ 2
= 15
● Get the mean of the 15th and 16th term for the median since N is an even number.
98.2 + 98.2
÷ 2
= 98.2

N=30 RF=100%
SOLUTION:
LOWER CLASS BOUNDARY (LCB) : LOWER CLASS LIMIT - 0.5
UPPER BOUNDARY (UCB) : UPPER CLASS LIMIT + 0.5
CLASS MARK: (LOWER CLASS LIMIT + HIGHER CLASS LIMIT) ÷ 2
RELATIVE FREQUENCY: (F÷N) x 100
N=30 RF=100%

The table entitled Different Body Temperatures in Fahrenheit shows an interval of 1 (see
the solution). Using class intervals, we will see the frequency of body temperatures each per class
using the table. The body temperatures (in Fahrenheit) of Class 1 (96.3 - 97.3) have a frequency
of 3. For class 2 (97.4 - 98.4) has a frequency of 14. Class 3(98.5 - 99.5) has a frequency of 12. for
class 4 (99.6 - 100.6) has a frequency of 0. Lastly, class 5 (100.7 - 101.7) has a frequency of 1. Of
all classes, class 2 is more frequent in terms of body temperatures, and on the contrary, Class 4 is
the least frequent in body temperature.
