3. The word algorithm is derived from the name of the mathematician, Al-Khwarizmi.

4. The symbol used to end a flowchart is oval.

5. The rhombus is used to make decisions in flowcharts.

6. Arrows are used to connect different parts of a flowchart.

7. Algorithm is a logical step by step process for problem solving.

8. Arrow is used to indicate the flow of logic by connecting symbols.

9. A flowchart is a diagram that represents a set of instructions.

10. There can be only one Yes/No flow lines going into a decision box.

B. Draw the symbols used in Flowcharts explaining their use:

Common symbols:

- Oval: Start/End

- Parallelogram: Input/Output

- Rectangle: Process

- Diamond: Decision

- Arrows: Flow lines

C. Two points to remember while drawing flowcharts:

1. Use correct symbols for each operation.

2. Use arrows to show the correct direction of flow.

D. Difference between a flowchart and algorithm:

An algorithm is a set of steps to solve a problem. A flowchart is a diagram showing these steps using symbols.
