Example 1easy
- A)A line segment has a definite length but no endpoints.
- B)A ray has two endpoints and extends indefinitely in one direction.
- C)A line has a definite length and two endpoints.
- D)A ray has one endpoint and extends indefinitely in one direction.
Step-by-step solution
- A line segment has a definite length and two endpoints. So, option A is false.
- A ray has one endpoint and extends indefinitely in one direction. So, option B is false.
- A line has no definite length and no endpoints, extending indefinitely in both directions. So, option C is false.
- The definition of a ray states it has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction. So, option D is true.
Answer: A ray has one endpoint and extends indefinitely in one direction.
