How do you denote a ray?

Back

A ray is denoted by its endpoint and another point on the ray, using the notation 'Ray AB', where A is the endpoint.

How can you identify a ray in a diagram?

Back

What is the significance of points in defining lines and segments?

Back

Points are used to define the positions of lines and segments; a line is defined by any two points, and a segment is defined by its two endpoints.
