Two planes can intersect on exactly one point?

No, 2 planes may only intersect at a line, a plane, or not at all. THREE planes may intersect at a point though...


How many planes intersect to form a line?

A minimum of 2, but an infinite number of planes can intersect at the same line.


Two planes intersect in a line?

Yes, the intersection of 2 planes is a line.


Can two different planes intersect a line?

Yes, there are three ways that two different planes can intersect a line: 1) Both planes intersect each other, and their intersection forms the line in the system. This system's solution will be infinite and be the line. 2) Both planes intersect the line at two different points. This system is inconsistent, and there is no solution to this system. However, both planes will still be intersecting the same line, albeit at different locations on the line. 3) Both planes intersect each other, but their intersection does NOT form the line in the system. However, if the line in the system intersects the planes' intersection, then they will all intersect a single point. The solution will be finite and be a single point. There are also 3 ways two different planes WON'T both intersect a line. 1) The two planes and the line are all parallel to each other, and none of them intersect each other. 2) The line is parallel to one plane, but intersects the other plane. 3) The same as #2, but now the line is parallel to the other plane and intersects the one plane.


How many lines are intersected when two planes intersect?

What is the maximum number of times 2 planes can intersect?

In three-dimensional space, two planes can either:* not intersect at all, * intersect in a line, * or they can be the same plane; in this case, the intersection is an entire plane.

they intersect at point (1,-2)


Do 2 planes intersect infinitely many points?

They need not intersect at all, but if they do, it will be along a straight line and so comprise infinitely many points.


Two distinct lines that do not intersect are parallel?

2 lines the same width apart are parallel.

Such a point is a vertex. But what does the question mean?

Will non parallel lines intersect?

If the 2 lines lie in the same plane, and they are not parallel, then they will intersect at some point. If the 2 lines are skew lines, then they are not in the same plane, and they will not intersect (but they are Not Parallel)
