A ray is a figure in geometry that starts at an endpoint

and continues forever going in one unique direction.

Unlike a line, a ray starts at a specific point and goes on.

To represent a ray, we use a small arrow at the top.

The arrow (symbol) must always go to the right.

However, rays can go in any direction.
