Straight and Curved Lines


            Pick up a skipping rope. Hold it from both ends and stretch it tightly.
















                                                 This is a straight line.
            Now loosen the rope a little.
















                             This is a curved line.                      These are also curved lines.

            Raise one end of the rope and stretch it tightly.





                                                                            This is a slanting line.
                                                                            It is also a straight line.





            Vertical and Horizontal Lines

                  A straight line from left to right                A straight line from top to bottom
                          is a horizontal line.                                is a vertical line.
