There can only be one line segment between two points. If you only have two points, there's no way to create more than one line from one to the other without adding another point.

How many straight lines can be formed with 10 non collinear points?

-- The beginning point of a line can be any one of the 10 points. For each of these ...-- The end point of the line can be any one of the remaining 9 points.So there are (10 x 9) = 90 ways to form a line with 2 of 10 non-colinear points.But once a line is drawn, there's no difference between it and the one that was drawn in the opposite direction between the same two points. So the 90 ways of forming lines actually produce (90 / 2) = 45 unique line segments.


How can you construct a parallelogram?

Use two line segments (line A and line B) with all points on line A equidistant from all points on line B; in otherwords, use 2 parallel lines. Choose two points on line A (points a and b). Now choose 2 points on line B (x and y) so that the distance of line ab equals the distance of line xy. Connect points a and y with a line segment ab and points b and z with a line segment bz. In simpler words, take two parallel line segments of equal length, and connect their endpoints with two other line segments.


How many segments are formed by 10 collinear points?

10 collinear points form one set of overlapping line segments, of which there are 45.


Do a polygon has a sides that are line segments true or false?

That seems to be true. Sides pretty much are line segments, and the angles are the end points.


Which term best describes a figure formed by three segments connecting three noncollinear points?

A triangle, but only if the line segments are straight.

What is a figure in which all line segments that can be drawn between points on the figure are not contained in the figure?

It is a concave figure, which can only be formed in figures with four or more lines (quadrilaterals and above).


What is a line segment drawn between two points of a polygon in the interior is called what?

A line segment drawn between two points of a polygon that lies entirely within the polygon is called a "diagonal." Diagonals connect non-adjacent vertices of the polygon, providing a way to explore the internal structure of the shape. In contrast, line segments that connect adjacent vertices are referred to as the sides of the polygon.
