Final answer:

A ray is a straight line that extends infinitely in one direction from a single endpoint.

Step-by-step explanation:

A ray is a straight line that originates at a point and extends infinitely in one direction. Therefore, the correct statements to describe a ray are:

  1. A ray has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.
  2. A ray does not have both endpoints defined.
