A line is a one-dimensional set of points that extends to infinity in both directions (so it has no endpoint). A ray is a line that goes to infinity in only one direction and has one endpoint. A line segment is a line with two endpoints (so it does not go to infinity).

A line segment is a line with a start and end point. A ray has a start but stretches on for ever in the other direction.
