Solution

A ray in geometry is a part of a line that starts at a specific point and extends infinitely in one direction. The endpoint of a ray is the point where the ray begins. This is the only point on the ray that is fixed, while the other end extends indefinitely. In notation, a ray is often represented with its endpoint first, followed by another point on the ray, with an arrow above the two letters pointing in the direction the ray extends. For example, if a ray starts at point A and passes through point B, it is denoted as AB \overrightarrow{AB} , with A being the endpoint.
