"Collinear" means "lie on the same straight line".
So a single point can't be collinear or non-collinear, because there's nothing for it
to be the "same" as.
Two points are always collinear, because you can always draw one straight line
between two points.
When you get to three points, then there's a question. Any two of them make
a straight line, and then the third one may or may not lie on the same line. If it
does, then the three points are collinear. If it doesn't, then they're not.

Draw a labeled diagram to illustrate each description Noncollinear points D E F and G segment DE and ray EF?
point B lies in plane U
What does three noncollinear points determine?
A plane
How many lines can be drawn through three noncollinear points?
If you are talking about straight lines, the answer is NONE, because that is what noncollinear means. If curves are allowed, then the answer is infinitely many.
What is a fixed point that you use to draw a circle is called as?
The fixed point that is located in the center of a circle and is used as the guiding point to draw it is called the "point of origin".
What is a triangle defined as?
The shape identified by three noncollinear points.
Example of non-collinear points?
what is noncollinear because it was a point
Draw a labeled diagram to illustrate each description Noncollinear points D E F and G segment DE and ray EF?
point B lies in plane U
What formed by two noncollinear rays with a common end point?
An angle
What are noncollinear points?
This is a geometry term. It's a point that does not pass or lie on the same line as another point.
From any point on a property a surveyor can locate a straight line to any other point on the property?
Through any three noncollinear points, there is exactly one plane.
How many planes are determined by three noncollinear?
1 line cause every plane contains atleast 3 or more noncollinear points
Points that do not lie on the same line?
noncollinear
What does three noncollinear points determine?
A plane
A figure made up of two noncollinear rays with a common endpoint?
An angle is a figure made up of two noncollinear rays with a common endpoint. The common endpoint is called the vertex, while the two noncollinear rays are called the sides of the angle.
How many lines can be drawn through three noncollinear points?
If you are talking about straight lines, the answer is NONE, because that is what noncollinear means. If curves are allowed, then the answer is infinitely many.
Can you draw a figure with three points that are noncollinear?
Of course. The vertices of a triangle, and any three vertices of any other polygon, are non-collinear. In the case of a triangle and a quadrilateral, if you had three collinear vertices, then you couldn't have the polygon.
What is a fixed point that you use to draw a circle is called as?
The fixed point that is located in the center of a circle and is used as the guiding point to draw it is called the "point of origin".
