Term
separation point
Definition
a specified point on a line, whihc separates or divides the line into three disticnt sets of points, the separation point itself, and the two sets of points on either side of that point
Term
half line
Definition
formally, in our geometry a set of points is a half line, if and only if, it is one of the two sets of points on either side of a specific point on the line called the separation point
Term
ray
Definition
from the Latin work radius meaning spoke of a wheel this is the separation point itself together with a half line. Formally in our geometry the set of points designated AB is a ray if and only if it is the union of the separation point A of a line called the endpoint and the set of points containted in teh half line which inclueds the poin tB
Term
line
Definition
a geometric fugure whih cis described as an infinite set of points arranged in a straight pattern more specifically it can be described as the union of three sets of distinct points a single dsignated point called the separation point, and two otehr sets of points called half lines on on either side of the separation point
Term
opposite rays
Definition
two rays going in opposite directions on teh same line which have a common endopoint. formally in our geometry, two rays BA and "BC are considered ppposite rays, if and only if B is between A and C
Term
betweeneess of rays
Definition
aB aC and AD in our geometry with coordinates b c d respectivly ray AC is said to liey between ray AB and ray aD if and only if b is less than c is lesss than d or d is less than c is less than bhfor three disticnt coplnar rays
