A ray
The length of a line segment that starts at the point and is perpendicular to the original line.
The shortest path is a line perpendicular to the given line that passes through the given point.
A point is an undefined term. But given two points, they can be joined using a line segment.
A line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the given point.

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.

That is correct. The distance from a point C to a line AB is the length of the perpendicular segment drawn from point C to line AB. This forms a right angle, creating a right triangle with the segment as the hypotenuse. The length of this perpendicular segment is the shortest distance from the point to the line.
Hi!Given: l is a straight line and A is a point not lying on l. AB⊥ l and C is a point on l.To prove: AB < ACProof: In ∆ABC,∠B = 90°Since, C can lie anywhere on l (other than M)So, AB is the shortest of all line segments drawn from A to l.Cheers!
