We name a line segment by combining the names of the two points that form the endpoints of the segment and drawing an overline.
Example Solution: GH, LB, and CE
When we name a segment, we combine the names of the two points that form the endpoints of the segment and draw an overline above the new name. There are two lines and one ray in the diagram. By taking sections of these, we can create segments. There are several ways we can pick two points. Three possible combinations are as follows.
| Segment | Section taken from |
|---|---|
| GH | FH |
| LB | AB |
| CE | CE |
