The rays VW and VZ don't necessarily have to go in opposite directions even though they have the same endpoint. Even though they are opposite arrays only if the angle is 180 degrees, they could still go in right angle directions or any angle of directions. Fi the points V, W, and Z and collinear and W and Z are on the side of point V, then they could also in fact be the same ray as well. Travelling is opposite directions yet starting at the same point is one of the characteristics of opposite rays. The first point in the name must be the endpoint and rays are always named with two points.
