a collection of points of such a nature that if one picks any three of them, A, B, and C, the distances AB, AC, and BC will be such that the sum of two of them will equal the third
a line traced by a point traveling in a constant direction; a line of zero curvature; "the shortest distance between two points is a straight line
WINDS Thunderstorm winds most often found with the gust front They originate from downdrafts and can cause damage which occurs in a "straight line", as opposed to tornadic wind damage which has circular characteristics
(n) A line generated by a point moving in a constant direction Straight lines can be either infinite or finite in length A finite straight line is an entity of specific length but no depth or breadth An infinite straight line is an entity of unspecified length but no depth or breadth
