Yes, they do.
A three-dimensional space contains at least four noncoplanar points. An example of this is the vertices of a tetrahedron, which consists of four points that do not lie in the same plane. This arrangement ensures that the points span three dimensions, demonstrating their noncoplanarity. Other examples include points in a cube or the corners of a pyramid.
No. If the four points are coplanar, they determine only one plane!
Since the question is unfinished, I'll assume the most obvious completion: "planes." Yes, a triangular pyramid is composed of 4 non-co-planar points which form 4 intersecting planes.

In Newtonian three dimensional space, two points can create a line, three to "define" it. In Einsteins "time-space", a minimum of four points are required.
Any 4 points can lie in a plane, 3 points determine a plane and just take the 4th to be say the origin.
The range of four probes gives you the material to test the probe. The best way to determine the optimum choice of the probe tip for specifications for a given material is the four points.
Follow ASTM-D698 A or ASTM-D1557 AorB for a modified proctor. Determine at leats four points at different moistire content and plot a curve.
No, they always are From Wikipedia.org, "The World's Encyclopedia" when I searched coplanar In geometry, a set of points in space is coplanar if the points all lie in the same geometric plane. For example, three distinct points are always coplanar; but four points in space are usually not coplanar. Since 3 points are always coplanar. A point and line are always coplanar
- If you're working on a single sheet of paper (2-D), then you can draw four lines that intersect in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 points. - If in 3-D space, then you can also draw four lines that don't intersect at all.
As far as I know, four points is the norm in most states. States are, however, free to determine how many points they wish to assess for it, so it may vary between states.
The shortest distance between four points is a straight line to and from each individual point. If all four points are aligned, the result will be a single straight line through all four points.
