Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Line spacing is the vertical distance between lines of text. Most writers use either double-spaced lines or single-spaced lines-nothing in between-because those are the options presented by word processors.

Detailed explanation-2: -Line height is the vertical distance between two lines of type, measured from the baseline of one line of type to the baseline of the next. Traditionally, in metal type, this was the combined measurement of the font size and the strips of lead that were inserted between each row (called “leading”) of type.

Detailed explanation-3: -The amount of vertical space between lines of type is referred to as line spacing or leading. The latter term dates back to the days of metal type, when lead strips of varying thicknesses were inserted between lines of type to create space.

Detailed explanation-4: -Line spacing determines the amount of vertical space between lines of text in a paragraph. By default, lines are single-spaced, meaning that the spacing accommodates the largest font in that line, plus a small amount of extra space. Paragraph spacing determines the amount of space above or below a paragraph.

Detailed explanation-5: -Generally, you can choose between four types of line spacing in Word: single spacing; 1.5 times spacing; double spacing or a custom amount, in which the numbers refer to the size of the space, relative to the size of a line.
