These are called direction lines. At the end of the direction lines are direction
points. The angle and length of the direction lines determine the shape and size of
the curved segments. Moving the direction points can reshape the path.
Note
The gray measurement label that appears as you drag the anchor point has
the values dX and dY.
dX
indicates the distance that the pointer has moved
along the x axis (horizontal), and
dY
indicates the distance that the pointer
has moved along the y axis (vertical).

With the Direct Selection tool still selected, drag the selected anchor point up to

Try clicking another point on the edge of the shape, and notice that the previous
point is deselected.
