What is the shortest distance between a point and a line?

The length of a line segment that starts at the point and is perpendicular to the original line.


What is The length of a perpendicular segment from the point to the line?

The length of a perpendicular segment from a point to a line is the shortest distance between that point and the line. This length can be calculated using the formula given the coordinates of the point and the line's equation. Specifically, if the line is represented in the form Ax + By + C = 0, and the point's coordinates are (x₀, y₀), the length can be found using the formula: ( \text{Distance} = \frac{|Ax₀ + By₀ + C|}{\sqrt{A^2 + B^2}} ). This distance is always positive and represents the minimum separation between the point and the line.

What is the length of a line segment?

The length of a line segment is called the distance. To find the distance, you need to know the coordinate of its endpoints given as (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) and the distance formula.


How is the midpoint of a segment different from the length of a segment?

Mostly because, assuming it just one segment, a midpoint by definition (mid- means middle) is the point at the exact middle of a line segment; whereas the length of the segment is the entire length of the segment. Pretty much, a midpoint is a point in the middle of the line, the length is the measurement of the same line.


Is a taut piece of thread a point line line segment ray or plane?

None of them since a thread has a finite length and finite width. A point has neither length nor width whereas a line, line segment and ray do not have any width. A plane has infinite length and width. The nearest approximation is a line segment.


A line segment that connects the center of a circle to a point on the circle?

what about such a line segment? the length of such a segment is called the radius. the area of the circle is pi*the length of this segment squared the circumference is 2*pi*the length of this segment


Which step in the construction of copying a line segment ensures that the new line segment has the same length as the original line segment?

The step that ensures the new line segment has the same length as the original line segment involves using a compass to measure the distance between the endpoints of the original segment. By placing the compass point on one endpoint and adjusting it to the other endpoint, the same width can be transferred to the new location where the new segment will be constructed. This guarantees that the new line segment will be congruent in length to the original one.
