The interesting thing is that the semi-infinite line is "as big as" the infinite line. to see that, cut the semi-infinite line in an infinite number of pieces (each one a meter long), put all the odd ones together making a semi-infinite line, put all the even ones together making a second semi-infinite line, and finally tie both semi-infinite lines together making one infinite line
