Do two planes intersect at a point or a line?

Two planes intersect at a line


If two planes intersect what is their intersection called?

A line. When two planes intersect, their intersection is a line.


If two planes intersect do they intersect in exactly one plane?

No, two planes do not intersect in exactly one plane unless the planes are exactly overlapping, making one plane. In Euclidean Geometry two planes intersect in exactly one line.


Where do two planes intersect?

In geometry, two planes intersect in a line. The only time this is not true is if the two planes are parallel to each other.


What are two planes that do not intersect?

parallel planes


How many Two planes intersect in exactly?

Two distinct planes will intersect in one straight line.


Are two lines in intersecting planes always sometimes or never skew?

Two lines in intersecting planes are never skew. Skew lines are defined as lines that do not intersect and are not parallel, which occurs only in three-dimensional space. However, since the planes intersect, any lines within those planes can either intersect or be parallel, but they cannot be skew.


Three planes may all intersect each other at exactly one point?

Three planes may all intersect each other at exactly one point. This commonly occurs when there is one straight plane and two other planes intersect it at acute or obtuse angles.


When two planes intersect do they intersect in a straight line?

Yes. If two planes are not coincident (the same plane) and are not parallel, then they intersect in one straight line.


How do you determine the angle between two planes if the planes intersect at a point?

The angle between two planes when the planes intersect at a point is the acute angle fixed by the normal vectors of the planes.


When two planes intersect they intersect in one and only one?

When two planes intersect, they do so along a line, which is the locus of points common to both planes. This means they do not intersect at just one point but rather along an entire line. If the two planes are parallel, however, they will not intersect at all. Thus, the statement is incorrect; they intersect in a line, not a single point.


What do you call two planes that intersect?

Two planes that intersect are simply called a plane to plane intersection. When they intersect, the intersection point is simply called a line.
