Lines in Maths

A line in geometry is a straight path that goes on forever in both directions. It has no thickness and is usually drawn between two points, but it keeps going without stopping. Lines are important for making shapes, measuring distances, and understanding angles. For example, the edge of a ruler can represent a line.
