Which of the following has a definite length ?

  • A.a ray
  • B.a plane
  • C.a line
  • D.a line segment

Answer: D

A line segment has a definite length.

A line segment is the part of a line between two end points, so it can be measured, for example AB = 5 cm.

A line extends without end in both directions, so it has no definite length. A ray has one end point but extends without end in the other direction, so it cannot be measured either. A plane is a flat surface extending without end in all directions; it has no length at all. Only the segment, bounded at both ends, has a measurable length.
