As segment is a smaller part of a larger whole.

I line in reality is a thread or string, so cutting a 5" segment of a 30" string results in a segment 5" long. Logically the segment 'Look' like the object separated but is measured at 5" long.

On paper draw a 10" line and erase the line at 2.5" from each end (erasing within the 2.5 inch segment) and you have a line segment identified by the eraser bits at each end.

What does an eight of an inch look like on a measuring tape?

An eighth of an inch on a measuring tape is represented by the shortest lines between the larger inch markings. It's typically found between the 0 and 1-inch marks, and there are eight of these small lines in each inch segment. Each line represents one-eighth of an inch, so the first line after 0 inches is 1/8 inch, the second line is 1/4 inch, and so on, up to 7/8 inch.
