line segment

Explanation:

Step1: Identify figure a

It has two endpoints T and U, so it's a line - segment.

Step2: Write figure a

It is written as $\overline{TU}$.

Step3: Identify figure b

It extends infinitely in both directions with points P and Q on it, so it's a line.

Step4: Write figure b

It is written as $\overleftrightarrow{PQ}$.

Step5: Identify figure c

It has one endpoint S and extends infinitely in one direction towards R, so it's a ray.

Step6: Write figure c

It is written as $\overrightarrow{SR}$.

Answer:

a) Type: line segment, How to write it: $\overline{TU}$
b) Type: line, How to write it: $\overleftrightarrow{PQ}$
c) Type: ray, How to write it: $\overrightarrow{SR}$
