Line segment
A line segment is a line with two points. When drawn, there are no arrows coming out of the points.
a line with two arrows on the end.
if its a line it goes on forever so it has arrows on each end. For a segment you just make a dot, measure 46 millimeters and put another dot on that end. No arrows on a segment.
This is simply called a line. <---------------O-------------------------------O----------------------> But this is called a line segment: O-------------------------------------------O

It sigals that the line is not just a line segment but that this line does NOT end.... ever.
The line with two arrows and two dots in the middle is called a "segment." In geometry, a segment is a part of a line that is bounded by two distinct endpoints. The two dots in the middle represent these endpoints, while the arrows indicate that the segment extends infinitely in both directions beyond the dots.

A line segment has one dimension . . . length.
Any line segment has infinitely many points and each one of them is specific to that line segment.
Probably three:The point is not on the segment nor the corresponding line,The point is in the line segment,The point is not in the line segment as given but would be if the segment were extended.
A line segment has two end points.
a musical line segment is a segment (paragraph) that you use to read put it also is music in many other forms
