The distance from a point C to the line AB is the length of the segment from C to AB?

That is correct. The distance from a point C to a line AB is the length of the perpendicular segment drawn from point C to line AB. This forms a right angle, creating a right triangle with the segment as the hypotenuse. The length of this perpendicular segment is the shortest distance from the point to the line.

What is the measure of line segment AB if A is 5 and B is 30 degrees?

The question cannot be answered. If AB is a line segment then A and B are normally the end-points of that segment. If A and B are points then A cannot be 5 and B cannot be 30 degrees. If A and B are not end-points of a line segment, it is not at all clear from the question what they are and how they relate to the line segment, AB.

What is the definition of directed line segments?

we all know, a line segment is a portion of line with two fixed points A and B , but this segment has no specific direction i. e AB and BA are both line segments but if we give direction to this line segment suppose from A to B, then it becomes directed line segment, which is also called as vector AB having direction from A to B.so, a line segment with specific direction is called directed(having direction) line segment.
