Question
name the figure below in two different ways.
Step1: Identify the figure type
The figure is a ray, as it has a starting point and extends infinitely in one direction.
Step2: Name the ray using endpoints
One way is to name it by its starting point and a point it passes through, like $\overrightarrow{TH}$ (starting at T, going through H). Another way is to use the starting point and the direction, but more commonly, using two points where the first is the endpoint: $\overrightarrow{TF}$ (starting at T, going through F) or $\overrightarrow{TH}$ as the main ray here. Wait, actually, the ray starts at T and goes through F and H, so the two ways can be: Ray TH (or $\overrightarrow{TH}$) and Ray TF (or $\overrightarrow{TF}$), but more accurately, since it's a ray with endpoint T and passing through F and H, the two names can be Ray TH and Ray TF, or using the symbol with the arrow.
Wait, the standard way to name a ray is with the endpoint first, then another point on the ray. So the ray here has endpoint T, and passes through F and H (with the arrow towards H, meaning it extends beyond H). So two ways to name it:
- Ray TH (using endpoint T and point H on the ray)
- Ray TF (using endpoint T and point F on the ray)
Or using the vector-like notation: $\overrightarrow{TH}$ and $\overrightarrow{TF}$
