Solution

The correct answer is B. collinear.

Explanation: Collinear points are those that lie on the same straight line. In geometry, this means that if you can connect the points with a single straight line without any gaps, then those points are considered collinear. This concept is fundamental in various geometric proofs and theorems, as well as in coordinate geometry where you might determine if points with given coordinates are collinear by checking the slope between them. The other options do not correctly describe this relationship: complementary refers to angles that sum to 90 degrees, rays are a part of a line with one endpoint, and segments are parts of lines with two endpoints.
