The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the given options has a definite length, we need to analyze the three geometrical concepts: a line, a line segment, and a ray. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Concepts**: - **Line**: A line extends infinitely in both directions and has no endpoints. - **Line Segment**: A line segment has two endpoints and a fixed length. - **Ray**: A ray starts at a point and extends infinitely in one direction. 2. **Analyze Each Concept**: - **Line**: Since it has arrows on both ends, it does not have a definite length. It continues forever in both directions. - **Line Segment (AB)**: This is the segment between points A and B. It has fixed endpoints A and B, meaning it has a specific length that can be measured. - **Ray**: A ray has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction. Therefore, it does not have a definite length. 3. **Conclusion**: - Among the three concepts, only the **line segment AB** has a definite length because it is bounded by points A and B. ### Final Answer: The line segment \( \bar{AB} \) has a definite length. ---
