In plane geometry it is a straight line. If you want to know the shortest line between two points on a globe, it will be the intervening section or arc of the great circle route that connects the points. The great circle will be a circle that cuts the globe into exactly equal parts, like the equator.
A line is considered straight if it has no curves or bends and extends infinitely in both directions without changing direction. Mathematically, a straight line can be defined by a linear equation, where any two points on the line will yield a consistent slope. Additionally, when plotted on a graph, a straight line will appear as a continuous, unbroken path. The shortest distance between any two points on a straight line is the direct line segment connecting them.
between two point there is exactly one line between three points there is exactly one plane
an arc
is a segment of the line consisting of any two points and the part between
"Points" are never considered a line segment. Points are never anything else but points.But any two points 'determine' a line segment, because there's only one line segmentthat can be drawn between them.So if you have several points on a line, then any two of them determine a segmentof that line.
The shortest distance between any two points is called displacement.
this is supposedly the shortest distance between any 2 points, however if you could bend the space between the two points and fold them together, well then they would be right beside each other
actually, there is, depending on your definition of polygon, and your definition of a line segment. A line segment is the shortest path btwn two points, right? So take a sphere and pick any two points on that sphere. The shortest path between them on the surface of the sphere would be a "curve" along the surface, but it's the shortest path between the points, so it technally is a line segment. Take two of these line segments that intersect at two points, and there is your two sided polygon!
The equator.
A line.
No. A line is the locus of all points located between any two points.
There are an infinite number of points between any two numbers on the real number line.

The distance between any two points on a number line is the absolute value of the difference of the coordinates.
No
The shortest distance between any 2 points. An ideal zero-width, infinitely long, perfectly straight curve (the term curve in mathematics includes "straight curves") containing an infinite number of points. In Euclidean geometry, exactly one line can be found that passes through any two points.A line in math is a straight line that goes forever on each side.
