Easy Definition: A straight figure with no start or end point.
Easy Definition: A straight figure with no start or end point.
Precise Definition: A straight one-dimensional locus of points that extends infinitely in both directions. (Unlike Euclid, modern definitions consider the word line to imply a straight line as opposed to a curve.)
