One. Because a ray starts with a fixed point and endlessly extends on the opposite side. Thus there is only one endpoint.
A ray has one origin point and no end points. If it had an end point it would be a line.
A geometrical ray has one point and the other side extends infinitely in one direction.
It is because many things are measured with reference to a fixed point: it space or time. This point is called a reference point or origin.

Infinity
False. A ray is a part of a line that has a fixed starting point (called the endpoint) but extends infinitely in one direction.
A geometrical ray has one point and the other side extends infinitely in one direction.
The lower fixed point of a clinical thermometer is the temperature of the ice point (0°C) and the upper fixed point is the temperature of the steam point (100°C at standard atmospheric pressure). These fixed points are used to calibrate the thermometer for accurate temperature measurements.
upper fixed point is a temperature of stem from water boiling and standards atmospheric pressure lower fixed point is the temperature of pure melting ice.

a ray starts at a point and goes on forever
The point at the end of a ray is called the endpoint. It is the specific location where the ray ends or terminates.
The fixed point on a lever that does not move is called the fulcrum. It is the point around which the lever pivots when force is applied on either side.
It is because many things are measured with reference to a fixed point: it space or time. This point is called a reference point or origin.
