ray
ray
A Ray.
A line segment does not extend in any direction; it has two endpoints and is finite in length. In contrast, a ray extends infinitely in one direction from a starting point, and a line extends infinitely in both directions. Thus, the correct answer is a line segment.
A line extends infinitely in both directions, while a ray has a starting point and extends infinitely in one direction. A line has no endpoints, while a ray has one endpoint.

two opposite
A clothesline is best described as a line segment because it has two endpoints where it is attached, typically to poles or walls. Unlike a ray, which extends infinitely in one direction from a single point, or a line, which extends infinitely in both directions, a clothesline has a defined length between its endpoints.
False
A line is related to a surface as a point to a plane. In geometry, a point has no dimensions and defines a location in space, while a plane is a two-dimensional surface that extends infinitely in all directions. Similarly, a line is a one-dimensional figure that extends infinitely in two opposite directions, while a surface is a two-dimensional figure that extends infinitely in all directions.
Two. If it were more than two it wouldn't be a line.
The point at the beginning of a ray is called the "endpoint." A ray is a part of a line that starts at this endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction. Unlike a line segment, which has two endpoints, a ray has only one.
Hopefully the same thing it means in most other grades of geometry, which is a straight one dimensional object that is infinitely long. It differs from a ray, which has a finite point and extends infinitely from that point in a single direction, and a line segment, which has two finite ends.
