When the line is inclined to the plane. That is, it is not in the plane nor is it parallel to it.

A plane and a line intersect at most in one point?

Yes, except when the line is in the plane. In the latter case, they intersect at each point on the line (an infinite number).


Does a line always intersect a plane at one point?

yes


Does a plane and a line intersect at most in one point?

yes


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...


If two planes intersect than they intersect at exactaly one point?

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


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.


Is it true that only one plane can pass through one and a point that is not on the line?

If you mean "only one plane can pass through another plane and through a point that is not on the line formed by the intersection of the two planes," the answer is "no." If you rotate the plane about the point, it will still intersect the line unless it is parallel to the line. By rotating the plane, you have created other planes that pass through the unmoved plane and through the point that is not on the line formed by the intersection of the two planes.


How many points are you a intersection of a line and a plane?

There are two possible answers; if the line is crossing the plane at an angle, then the line and the plane only intersect at one point. However, if the line is part of the plane, then the entire line intersects with the plane, and there are an infinite number of intersecting points.


Can Two planes can intersect in exactly one point?

The intersection of two planes is a line. (or a massive explosion...lol)


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.


What is two plane intersect in exactly one point?

point of intersection.


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.
