1. A method for creating ice cream that your friend thought of: Although it is an idea or process, it is not something physical that can be touched or perceived by the senses. Therefore, it is not an example of tangible property.
2. An idea for an invention that your dad mentioned briefly but did not write down: Similarly, this is also an idea or concept that exists in the mind but has not been recorded or materialized in a physical form. Hence, it is not an example of tangible property.
3. Song lyrics printed in a songbook: In this case, the songbook containing the printed lyrics is a physical object that can be touched and perceived. It is a tangible property.
4. A quicker system of washing a car that you thought of last summer: Like the previous examples, this is an idea or concept that is not a physical object and cannot be touched or perceived. Hence, it is not an example of tangible property.
