(Street plan): A city has two main roads which cross each other at the centre of the city. These two roads are along the North-South direction and East_West direction. All the other streets of the city run parallel to these roads and are 200m apart. There are 5 streets in each direaction. Using 1 cm =200cm, draw a model of teh city on your note book. Represent the roads/streets by single lines. There are many cross-streets in your model. A particular cross-street is made by two streets, one running in the North-South directin and another in the East-West direction. Each cross street is rreferred to in the following manner, If the 2 ^(nd) steeet running in teh North-South direction 5 ^(th) in the East-West direction meet at some crossing, then we will call this cross-street (2,5). Using this convection, find: How many cross-streets can be referred at as (4,3)
