Points, Lines, Rays, Segments, and Planes

Front

What is a line segment?

Back

A part of a line that has two endpoints and includes all the points in between.

Front

What is a point in geometry?

Back

A location in space that has no size or dimension.

Front

Back

Point.

Front

What is a ray?

Back

A geometric figure that has one endpoint and continues infinitely in one direction.

Front

What is a line?

Back

A straight path that extends infinitely in both directions with no endpoints.

Front

What is a plane?

Back

A flat, two-dimensional surface that extends infinitely in all directions.

Front

How many endpoints does a line segment have?

Back

Two endpoints.

Front

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

Back

A line extends infinitely in both directions, while a line segment has two endpoints.

Front

Can a ray be part of a line segment?

Back

Yes, a ray can be part of a line segment if it starts at one endpoint and extends infinitely.

Front

What is the relationship between points and lines?

Back

Points can define a line; two points determine a line.
