1. A part of a line that is bounded by two distinct end points, forming the shortest distance between those two points
In geometry, a line segment AB is the straight path connecting points A and B
Em geometria, um segmento de reta AB é o caminho reto conectando os pontos A e B
2. A finite portion of a line with defined endpoints
The line segment measures 5 centimeters in length
O segmento de reta mede 5 centímetros de comprimento
