How are a line and a line segment are different?
a line can be indefinitely extended but a line segment is a part. a line segment cannot be extended:)
What is the difference between segment and line?
A segment only goes between 2 fixed points where a line goes on indefinitely
What are the postulate involving points lines and plane?
Euclid's first four postulates are:A straight line segment can be drawn joining any two points.Any straight line segment can be extended indefinitely in a straight line.Given any straight line segment, a circle can be drawn havibg the segment as radius and one endpoint as centre.All right angles are congruent. He also had the fifth postulate, equivalent to the parallel postulate. There are various equivalent versions.If two lines are drawn which intersect a third in such a way that the sum of the inner angles on one side is less than two right angles, then the two lines inevitably must intersect each other on that side, if extended far enough.The fifth postulate cannot be proven and, in fact, it is now known that it cannot be proven and that there are many internally-consistent geometries in which the negations of this postulate are true.
What is called a line segment extended endlessly in both directions?
A line.
Why you can draw a continuous linear function if you only know two ordered pairs?
A continuous linear function produces a straight line graph that can be extended indefinitely in either direction. If the two ordered pairs are plotted on a graph then a straight line can be drawn joining these points. If that line is extended beyond both ends then there are no set limits and the function becomes continuous.

Which is longest a line segment a ray or a line?
A straight line may be extended in either direction indefinitely. A ray is the part of the straight line beginning at a given point and extending limitlessly in one direction. A line segment is a part of the straight line between two of its points, including the two points.
Can a line segment be extended indefinitely in spherical geometry?
that would be a line and lines do not exist in spherical geometry
What are Euclid's 5 postulates?
A straight line segment can be drawn by joining any two points.A straight line segment can be extended indefinitely in a straight line.Given a straight line segment, a circle can be drawn using the segment as radius and one endpoint as center.All right angles are congruent.If two lines are drawn which intersect a third in such a way that the sum of the inner angles on one side is less than two right angles, then the two lines inevitably must intersect each other on that side if extended far enough.
What are five basic postulates of the euclidean geometry?
The five basic postulates of Geometry, also referred to as Euclid's postulates are the following: 1.) A straight line segment can be drawn joining any two points. 2.) Any straight line segment can be extended indefinitely in a straight line. 3.) Given any straight line segment, a circle can be drawn having the segment as a radius and one endpoint as the center. 4.) All right angles are congruent. 5.) If two lines are drawn which intersect a third in such a way that the sum of the inner angles on one side is less than two right angles (or 180 degrees), then the two lines inevitably must intersect each other on that side if extended far enough. (This postulate is equivalent to what is known as the parallel postulate.)
How do you differentiate a line segment from a line?
LINE: A line is formed by joining of various points,which can be extended in both the directions.LINE SEGMENT: A line segment is a part of line, which has limitations i.e., it can not be extended in any direction.

Can a curved line be a line segment?
No, a line segment is a straight path that connects two points without any curves. A curved line, on the other hand, is not a line segment because it deviates from a straight path.
What is the difference between segment and line?
A segment only goes between 2 fixed points where a line goes on indefinitely
What is a verticle line segment?
A vertical line goes straight up an down, so a vertical line segment is a line segment that goes straight up and down. Simple.
How could drawing a line on a sphere refute Euclids second postulate that a line segment may be extended indefinitely.?
Because it will eventually complete a Circle, like the dachshund that met its end going round a lamp-post.
