symbol: <
and
answer
attempt 1 out of 2

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of a ray

A ray has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.

Step2: Name the ray

The ray can be named using its endpoint first. So, one way is \(\overrightarrow{DC}\) (endpoint \(D\), passing through \(I\) and extending towards \(C\)’s direction as per the arrow). Another way is \(\overrightarrow{DI}\) (endpoint \(D\), passing through \(I\) and extending infinitely in the direction away from \(D\) as per the arrow).

Answer:

\(\overrightarrow{DC}\) and \(\overrightarrow{DI}\)
