Question

Which of the following geometric objects occupy one dimension?

Check all that apply

A.Point
B.Segment
C.Line
D.Triangle
E.Plane
F. Ray

Answer 1

C. Line. F. Ray B. Segment ( but see below.)

Explanation:

A line is one dimensional, so is a Ray.

As for a segment it depends on what you mean . A line segment is one dimensional, but a segment of a circle has 2 dimensions.

Answer 2

Segment, line and Ray

Explanation:

Lets discuss all the options one by one.

Point:

A point has no length, no width and no depth. It is 0 dimensional.

Line:

A line extends in both directions. It is straight and has no thickness. It is 1 dimensional

Segment:

It is a part of a line bounded by two distinct end points. As it is a part of a line than it is also 1 dimensional.

Triangle:

A triangle has three sides and three corners. It is two dimensional figure. Its interior or oval is also two dimensional.

Plane:

A plane is a two dimensional flat surface with no thickness.

Ray:

A ray is a part of a line with single end point. It goes off in a particular direction infinitely. As it is a part of a line hence it is also 1 dimensional:

Thus according to the above description Segment, Line and Ray are one dimensional
