Question 1.
How many line segments are there if you connect all the vertexes in this figure? Some, but not all, have been connected for you.

Answer:
30 lines segments,
Explanation:

there are 5 line segments from point A to B,C,D,E AND F.
6 points and 5 line segments,
6 x 5 = 30
Total 30 line segments can be constructed to connect all the vertexes in the above figure.
Question 2.
Let A stand for the town Augusta, and B stand for the town Bar Harbor. Using these two letters, what would be the ray if you were traveling from Bar Harbor through Augusta?
Answer:
\(\overline{BA}\),
Explanation:
Point A stand for the town Augusta, and B stand for the town Bar Harbor.
Using these two letters a ray from Bar Harbor through Augusta can be drawn.
Question 3.
Name all the possible line segments in this figure.

Answer:
\(\overline{BO}\), \(\overline{OD}\), \(\overline{BD}\), \(\overline{AB}\),
\(\overline{AO}\), \(\overline{OC}\), \(\overline{CB}\), \(\overline{BC}\),
\(\overline{OB}\), \(\overline{DO}\), \(\overline{DB}\), \(\overline{BA}\), \(\overline{OA}\), \(\overline{CO}\).
Explanation:
A line segment is part of a line that has two endpoints and is finite in length.
A ray is a line segment that extends indefinitely in one direction.
The following are all possible line segments, which can be drawn from O to B and O to D and all…
\(\overline{BO}\), \(\overline{OD}\), \(\overline{BD}\), \(\overline{AB}\),
\(\overline{AO}\), \(\overline{OC}\), \(\overline{CB}\), \(\overline{BC}\),
\(\overline{OB}\), \(\overline{DO}\), \(\overline{DB}\), \(\overline{BA}\), \(\overline{OA}\), \(\overline{CO}\).
Question 4.
At the right is a drawing of an airport runway. Name all the possible rays that could be used to describe the different ways a plane could take off. For points, use the numbers at the end of the runways: 15, 24, 8 and 33. An example of one is ray 15 – 33. Name the other three.

Answer:
Ray 33-15, Ray 24-8, Ray 8-24, Ray 15-33
Explanation:

A Ray from DC and CD Ray 33-15, Ray 15-33
A Ray from AB and BA Ray 24-8, Ray 8-24
