The length of a line between two points, (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on a Cartesian Plane is given by the formula:

length = square root [ (x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2 ]

Is a taut piece of thread a point line line segment ray or plane?

None of them since a thread has a finite length and finite width. A point has neither length nor width whereas a line, line segment and ray do not have any width. A plane has infinite length and width. The nearest approximation is a line segment.
