Question

which figure fits this geometric notation?
\overrightarrow{bc}

Explanation:

Step1: Recall ray notation

In geometry, $\overrightarrow{BC}$ represents a ray. A ray starts at a point (in this case point B) and extends infinitely in one direction (towards point C).

Step2: Analyze options

The first option is a line - segment with two endpoints B and C. The second option is a ray starting at B and going towards C which matches $\overrightarrow{BC}$. The third option is a ray starting at C and going towards B which is $\overrightarrow{CB}$.

Answer:

The second figure (the ray starting at B and going towards C)
