What is the difference between a LINE SEGMENT and a LINE?

• Line Segments are two-dimensional, Lines are one-dimensional

• Lines can be represented on single planes; Line Segments can only be represented on multiple planes.

• Line Segments have finite lengths; Lines go on forever.

• Line segments are geometric figures; Lines are not.

In a geometric system, which would best describe how postulates differ from theorems?

• Postulates do not require a proof and are presumed true, while theorems are statements requiring proof.

• Postulates are statements that require proof, while theorems cannot be proven.

• Both postulates and theorems do not require proof and are assumed to be true.

• There is no difference between postulates and theorems.
