Can a ray be a line segment?
No. A ray is infinite on one side and ends at a point at the other. A line segment ends in two points. A ray can contain a line segment, as the distance between any two given points on the ray is a line segment.
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.
What is a line segment or ray that intersects the midpoint of a line segment at a 90 degrees angle?
Such a line is called a perpendicular bisector.
Ray in math?
ray is a line segment that extends forever in one direction
Which is longest a ray line or line segment?
A ray line is longer, since it has an end point and then extends forever in the other direction its length is infinite, whereas a segment has a definite length defined by two endpoints.
What is the difference between a line segment and a ray?
a ray continues on and on but a line segment stops
Is an imaginary line from the earth to the moon a line a ray or a segment Why?
It is a segment in case you do not know what a segment is it is a line with two end points
Can a ray be a line segment?
No. A ray is infinite on one side and ends at a point at the other. A line segment ends in two points. A ray can contain a line segment, as the distance between any two given points on the ray is a line segment.
Can a line segment be part of a ray?
yes it can because a Ray is a line segment with an arrow at the end.
How is a line segment and ray the same?
They are not. A line segment is of finite length whereas a ray is infinitely long.
How is a line a line segment and a ray are different?
A line segment has a finite length. A ray extends to infinity in one direction.
How is a line a line segment and a ray different?
A line segment has a finite length. A ray extends to infinity in one direction.
What geometric object occupy one dimension Line Plane Ray Triangle Segment Point?
Line, Ray and segment
Does a line segment have one more point than a ray?
A line segment has one more point than a ray
A part of a line with one end point?
A part of a line that extends in one direction with one endpoint is called a ray.
How many points may a line contain?
A line, ray, or line segment contains an infinite number of points.
How could you change a line segment into a ray?
by adding a segment
