\\ \text{We know that a ray starts at one point and it continues out to infinity}.\\ \\ \text{and a line goes on to infinity in both directions, but a ray stops on one end.}\\ \\ \text{while a  line segment is part of a line that has two endpoints.}\\ \\ \text{From the figure we can see that NH is a line segment as it has two endpoints.}\\ \\ \text{And LE, AP and EP are lines as they goes on to infinity in both directions.}\\ \\ \text{The Only ray is EC.}
