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 are lines that intersect at the same point?

yes two lines intersect to form a point two planes intersect to form a line


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...


Can two planes in three dimensional space intersect at one point?

No, the two planes intersect at a line, which is an infinite number of points.


Can two planes in three-dimensional space intersect at one point?

No, they intersect at a line.


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.


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.


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.


If two planes intersect what is their intersection called?

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


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.


Can Two planes can intersect in exactly one point?

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


Do two planes always intersect in a single point?

No, two planes do not always intersect in a single point. They can either be parallel and never intersect, or they can coincide, meaning they are the same plane and thus intersect along an infinite number of points. If they do intersect, the intersection will be a line, not just a single point.
