Answer 1

Answer:

${}$                                                                                                    XY                $\overline {XY}$

Represent a distance ${}$                                                                 √

Represent a segment ${}$                                                                                     √

Represent a numerical value ${}$                                                     √

Represent a geometric figure                                                                           √

Can be found by applying the ruler postulate  ${}$                         √

Can be be duplicated with a compass and a straight edge                          √

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between XY and $\overline {XY}$ are that the points XY represents the distance between two points having a numerical value whose value can be found by using a ruler to find difference in the numbers on the ruler that coincides with the points, while
