the type that go on forever are just called lines but the ones that end are segments
a ray
A line that goes on forever in both directions is a line. One that starts at one point and continues forever in the other direction is a ray, and one that has two definite ends is a line segment.
A line segment has a end point. A ray goes on forever until it hits something, like another ray.
In Euclidean geometry, a line is considered to be infinitely long in both directions, meaning it extends indefinitely in both the positive and negative directions along its path. This concept is based on the definition of a line as a straight path with no endpoints. Therefore, mathematically speaking, a line does go on forever.
Ray, it has a stop/start point (the flashlight), and it goes on "forever."
No, because a line goes forever in opposite directions of each other. A ray goes forever in one direction.
a ray starts at a point and goes on forever
a line a ray goes in only one direction forever No, a line goes on forever in two directions, a ray starts at one point and then goes on forever.
Think of a plane as being a sheet of paper that goes on forever in all four directions. Coplanar means that they are on the same plane. Think of how you would draw two lines (which go on forever in two directions) on that sheet of paper so that they would never meet each other (not have a point in common)--you would draw two parallel lines.

Paralleled lines
a Ray.
A ray has one point and one that goes on forever, a line segment has two points.
A ray ends from one point and goes on forever in one direction. .------------------------> Except the point is connected to the line. It sort of looks like that Examples of real life rays are rare, because how many things start at one point and go on forever? Rays are used primarily for mathematical purposes.
I assume you mean that the line goes through a certain point. There is no limit to how many lines you can have through the same point.
