Learn it A point is a location. A line goes on forever both ways; a ray starts at one point and goes on forever one way; a segment has two endpoints. Any 2 points make exactly one line.

Example: How many segments join pairs of 6 points on a line?

  1. Each segment needs 2 endpoints.
  2. Choose 2 of 6: $\binom{6}{2} = \frac{6 \times 5}{2}$.
  3. $= 15$ segments.
