Is a line has two end points?
No. Technically, a "line" has no ends, and goes on forever in both directions. A "line segment" has two end points, and a definite length.
What are facts about line segments?
They have a starting point, end point, definite length, they connect 2 points, they have a definite slope, they do not always have a y- intersect or x- intersect.
A radius of a circle is 13 1 6 what is the diameter?
By definition the radius of a circle is a straight line drawn from the centre of a circle to its circumference. If you extend that line to the opposite side of the circle it becomes the diameter. The length of the diameter is twice the length of the radius. If the radius is 1316 the diameter is 2632
How is a line line segment and a ray different?
line segments have two definite points, A and B, a ray has has only one definite point and the over indefinite point is a continuous line
Can The length of a line segment can't be measured?

What is the length of the line?
A line does not have a definite length .It extends to infinity.Whereas a line segment has a definite measure.
What is the length of a line?

Does a line extend forever in at least one direction?
- A line has no ends and extends forever in both directions.- A ray has one end and extends forever in the other direction.- A line segment has two ends and a definite length.
What is the subset of a line that has a definite length?
That looks like the description of a line segment.
Can you extend the antena wire?
You can extend an antenna wire, but the added length will reduce amplitude of received signal. You may need an in-line amplifier depending on the application and length of antenna wire.
Which is longest a ray line or line segment?
A ray line is longer, since it has an end point and then extends forever in the other direction its length is infinite, whereas a segment has a definite length defined by two endpoints.
Is a line has two end points?

Why can lines not be congruent?
Let's start with the definition. Definition: Line segments are congruent if they have the same length So lines and rays would be congruent if they had the same length. However, Rays and lines cannot be congruent because they do not have both end points defined, and so have no definite length. It know it's a LONG story, the the bottom LINE is they have no length so they can't be congruent.
