Given two points P and Q, find how many line segments do they determine?
Given:
Two points P and Q.
To do:
We have to find the number of line segments they determine.
Solution:
Through any two given points, we can draw only one distinct line.
Therefore, only one line segment can be drawn through two given points P and Q.
