How is a line segment and ray the same?
They are not. A line segment is of finite length whereas a ray is infinitely long.
Is a zero angle the same thing as a line?
no, it is the same thing as a RAY
How is naming a ray similar or naming a line?
naming a line is different from naming a ray. say for example ,if we have line AB,this is similar to line BA while ray AB is different from ray BA.
Is a ray a line?
a line is a ray cause of the angles in directery in the proportion in the radius....
What is the same of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strikes?
No clue! look in ur txtbook?
How is a line segment and ray the same?

Which is longer ray or a line?
They are the same length
Point that lies on the same line?
ray
Why is ray CD the same as ray DC?
They define the same line segment, connecting two points.
Is a zero angle the same thing as a line?
no, it is the same thing as a RAY
Explain why Ab and Ba are the same line but Cd and Dc are not not the same ray?
Ab and Ba are the same line because there are no endpoints to a line. Therefore, you can reverse the order of the letters. So, Cd and Dc are not the same ray because the first letter is the endpoint. So on ray Cd, point C is the endpoint and d is a point on the line coming from the endpoint. On ray Dc, D is the endpoint.
Can a geometry ray CD be called a DC?
No. Line CD is the same as line DC, but rays are always named from the origin point, so ray DC is a ray pointing in the opposite direction from ray CD.
Can a ray be labeled two ways?
Technically, yes: correctly and incorrectly. However, while (line)BD and (line)DB are the same line, (ray)AO and (ray)OA are distinct, and only one of those would be correct for any given ray (the origin is given first, followed by a point on the ray).
What is one way that a line is the same as a ray?
Both a line and a ray are straight, infinite sets of points that extend indefinitely in opposite directions.
A line that has only one endpoint?
A ray = A half-line
How is naming a ray similar or naming a line?
naming a line is different from naming a ray. say for example ,if we have line AB,this is similar to line BA while ray AB is different from ray BA.
Does a ray go on forever?
Yes, both a ray and a line go on forever, but unlike a line, and like a line segment, a ray has an endpoint.
