How to denote the line through points A and B?
Hi there, I don't see the explicit notation for the line through A and B. What does AB stand for? The distance between A and B (sometimes denoted $|AB|$), the segment from A to B (denoted sometimes $\overline{AB}$ or [AB]), the line through A and B (denoted sometimes (AB))? Is there a fixed rule, regional rules? Christian.Mercat (talk) 17:22, 16 February 2024 (UTC)


 * AFAYK, there is no commonly accepted notation, and, depending on the authors and the context, $AB$ or $AB$ may denote eiher the line, the segment, or its length. Some authors use the same notation for the three concepts. D.Lazard (talk) 17:45, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
