Question

classify each figure as a line, ray, or line segment. then, show how to write it.

figure	type	how to write it
(b) <point>215 626</point>	∘line ∘ray ∘line segment	☐
(c) <point>217 853</point>	∘line ∘ray ∘line segment	☐

Explanation:

Step1: Identify figure (a) type

The figure has two endpoints, so it is a line segment. It is written as $\overline{KJ}$ or $\overline{JK}$.

Step2: Identify figure (b) type

The figure has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction, so it is a ray. It is written as $\overrightarrow{UT}$.

Step3: Identify figure (c) type

The figure has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction, so it is a ray. It is written as $\overrightarrow{HG}$.

Answer:

Figure	Type	How to write it
(b)	ray	$\overrightarrow{UT}$
(c)	ray	$\overrightarrow{HG}$
