Answer:

Symbol:
\Large \text{$\rightarrow$}

PS and PZ

Explanation:

The given figure is a ray.

A ray is part of a line that has one endpoint and continues indefinitely in one direction. Its symbol is an arrow pointing to the right:
\Large \text{$\rightarrow$}

When naming a ray, the first letter should always be the endpoint of the ray. The next letter can be any other point on the ray.

The endpoint of the given ray is P. Therefore, the given ray can be named as:
\overrightarrow{\sf PS} \: \textsf{ and } \: \overrightarrow{\sf PZ}
