If you draw a capital "Y" with say each angle = 120 degrees, then the three lines will represent where the edges of the planes meet each other and the centre point will be the vertex where the three planes intersect.

You are basically looking at the corner of a cube at an angle.

If you connect the ends of the three lines you will be looking down at a triangular pyramid (three faces with three edges and the vertex in the centre).

Is it true that three planes can intersect in only one point?

The intersection of three planes can be a plane (if they are coplanar), a line, or a point.


Three planes that intersect in a point?

The intersection of three planes is either a point, a line, or there is no intersection if any two of the planes are parallel to each other. This tells us about possible solutions to 3 equations in 3 unknowns. There may be one solution, no solution, or infinite number of solutions.


Is it possible for one point to be in two different planes?

Yes, a single point can belong to multiple planes. In three-dimensional space, a point is defined by its coordinates and can be a part of any number of planes that intersect at that point. For example, if two planes intersect at a line, every point on that line, including the intersection point, is contained in both planes.


The intersection of the three default reference planes?

The origin.


What is intersection of two planes?

The intersection of two planes in three-dimensional space is typically a line, provided the planes are not parallel. If the planes are parallel, they do not intersect at all. If the two planes are coincident, they overlap completely, resulting in an infinite number of intersection points. The line of intersection can be found by solving the equations of the two planes simultaneously.


Can three planes intersect in a point?

yes, three planes can intersect in one point.


Can 2 distinct planes intersect at a point?

No, two distinct planes in three-dimensional space cannot intersect at just a single point. They can either be parallel and not intersect at all, or they can intersect along a line. If they intersect, the intersection will always be a line rather than a single point.


What figure represents a perpendicular intersection of two planes?

A perpendicular intersection of two planes is represented by a line that is orthogonal to both planes. This line acts as the common line of intersection where the two planes meet at a right angle (90 degrees). This geometric configuration is often visualized in three-dimensional space, where the planes can be thought of as sheets extending infinitely in their respective dimensions.


What is edges on a three dimensional figure?

It is the intersection of two planes or the line joining two vertices.


What do you call the point of intersection of three concurrent lines?

the point of concurrency


Point intersection and a point concurrency?

Point of intersection is where the point where 2 lines or a line and a plane meet, or in a 3-dimensional space three planes meet, or any other graphs that intersect in a point.Point of concurrency is the intersection point of concurrent lines.In geometry, two or more lines are said to be concurrent if they all pass through a single point.For example, the perpendiculars bisectors of the sides of a triangle are concurrent and they meet at the point of concurrency.So point of intersection may be the same as point of concurrency, but when it comes to examples other than lines, point of intersection is often used. When it comes to just lines, either one is ok.
