Technically, in geometry, there is no such thing. By definition, a line is infinite. A "line segment" is a finite portion of a line. In everyday speech, people might sometimes refer to a line segment as a finite line. But if you said this on a math test, you would fail the test.

Is a line segment part of a line?

Yes, a line segment is a part of a line. A line extends infinitely in two directions, whereas a line segment is a finite portion of that line with two distinct endpoints.

Which is true a line is part of a lline segment or a line segment is part of a line?

A line segment is part of a line. A line extends infinitely in both directions, while a line segment has two endpoints and is finite in length. Therefore, every line segment can be found within a line, but not all parts of a line are line segments.

What is the part of a line that has a beginning and end?

The part of a line that has a beginning and an end is called a line segment. Unlike a line, which extends infinitely in both directions, a line segment has two distinct endpoints. This makes it a finite portion of a line, often used in geometry to represent distances or connections between points.
