How does a line segment look like?
A line segment is a straight path that connects two points. It is finite in length and does not extend infinitely in both directions, unlike a line. A line segment is commonly represented by a line with a start point and an end point.
What is the mid point?
The midpoint is the point that divides a line segment into two equal parts. It is equidistant from the endpoints of the line segment.
A finite part of a line?
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.
A line segment with one endpoint at the center of a circle?
The answer depends on where the other end of the line segment is. If it is on the circumference the segment is a radius. Otherwise, it is indeterminate.
Which are the examples and non examples of radius in math?
Some examples and non example of a radius in math are: Examples - the distance from the center of a ball to the outer edge. The difference from the center of a circle to the outer edge. Non example - the length of a square, the entire length across a circle or ball, the distance around the perimeter of a circle.
What is the length of the line segment BB'?
The length of the line segment BB' is equal to the distance between point B and point B'.
Which of these is equal to the distance from a point to a line?
the length of a perpendicular segment from the point to the line
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 distance between the endpoints of a line segment?
This is the length of the segment.
The length of the segment from a point C to the line AB gives the distance from the point C to the line AB?
perpendicular by Deviin Mayweather of Boyd Anderson
To find the distance from a point C to the line AB you must find the length of the segment from C to AB?
perpendicular
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.
