Lines, Line Segments, Rays

What is a ray?

• A part of a line that has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.

• A line that has two endpoints and does not extend infinitely.

• A point in space that has no dimensions.

• A segment of a line that is finite in length.

What is the difference between a line and a line segment?

• A line has two endpoints, while a line segment goes on forever.

• A line has no endpoints and goes on forever, while a line segment has two endpoints.

• A line is shorter than a line segment.

• A line segment can be extended infinitely, while a line cannot.

How many endpoints does a ray have?

• Two endpoints.

• No endpoints.

• One endpoint.

• Three endpoints.

What is an angle?

• An angle is formed by two rays that share a common endpoint.

• An angle is a measure of the distance between two points.

• An angle is a type of polygon with three sides.

• An angle is a straight line that connects two points.

What is the term for a figure that has no length, width, or height?

• Point

• Line

What is a line?

• A line is a straight path that extends infinitely in both directions with no endpoints.

• A line is a curved path that connects two points.

• A line is a segment that has a fixed length.

• A line is a collection of points that form a closed shape.

What is a line segment?

• A line that extends infinitely in both directions.

How do you identify a line segment in a diagram?

• Look for a straight path with two endpoints marked.

• Identify a curved path with no endpoints.

• Find a dashed line that extends infinitely in both directions.

• Locate a series of points that do not connect.
