Question

Use the figure to name:
a)Five points
b)A line
c)Four rays
d)Five line segments

Answer 1

Hint: Here, we will find the name of all the points given in the question by using the figure given. We have been given five points on three axis in which two of them is on positive axis and other two is on negative axis remaining is our origin i.e. O. We will use these five points to form our rays line segments and also a straight line.

Complete step-by-step answer:
We will name all the points one by one
Five points
We have to name all the points in the figure,
As we can see that points marked on the lines are: B, C, D, E, and O, so the five points will be B, C, D, E, and O.
A Line
We have to name the straight line by using the point. As we know that a line has two end points in this case
Therefore the Line is $\overleftrightarrow {BD}$.
Four rays
A ray has only one point and the other point can go till infinite.
As we can see the rays in the figure are: OC, OB, OE and OD.
Five line segment
A line segment is formed by two endpoints within a line.
As we can see that the line segments within the lines are: OC, OB, OE, OD and BD.
Note: A Line is a one-dimensional straight figure which is extended in both the directions. Common mistake that we can make is getting confused between the line segment and the rays. The difference between these two is that a line has two endpoints and all the points of the line between them whereas a ray is that part of a line which has only one endpoint and the other point can go to infinity.
