Question

Are KP and PK the same ray? Are NM and MN the same ray? Explain your answer.

Answer 1

KP and PK cannot be the same ray and also NM and MN cannot be the same ray.

Explanation:

• A Ray is said to be a single straight unidirectional infinity line. We can determine the starting point of a ray whereas we can't plot the endpoint of the ray.
• So PK and KP cannot be the same ray and there can't be the existence of such ray with the two points.
• In the same way, NM and MN can't be described as a ray because it doesn't satisfy the requirement of the ray.
• Hence the above coordinates cant be the same ray.
