!!**GEOMETRY HELP PLEASE**!! How would you write the name of a segment differently than the name of a line? What symbols would you use?

Lines have a line like these:

whereas segments just have line without arrows I think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lines go on forever, however segments are just that- a segment on a line.

OpenStudy (cloverracer):

A segment is the part of a line that consists of two points. A line is a straight path that extends in two opposite directions without end

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes exactly.
