A ray is a fundamental geometric concept in mathematics. It consists of a single point called the endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.

Rays are typically represented with an arrow to indicate the direction of their extension. Rays are used to describe lines, angles, and vectors in geometry and trigonometry.
