Define the following terms:   Line segment
A line segment is a part of a line that is bounded by two distinct end points, and contains every point on the line between its end points.
A closed line segment includes both endpoints, while an open line segment excludes both endpoints; a half-open line segment includes exactly one of the endpoints.
