Does a plane containing 2 points of a line contains the entire line?

Yes, a plane containing 2 points of a line contains the entire line. Let us consider two points on a plane and then draw a line segment joining those two points. Since the points lie on the plane so line segment has to lie completely on that plane too. Now if we extend the line segment indefinitely in both directions we get a line and that line also has to lie on the same plane since some definite part(line segment) of it(line) also lies on the same plane.

The vertical axis is called the x-axis and the horizontal axis is called the y-axis The entire plane containing these is called the xy-plane?
False
What is the intersection of plane WZVS and plane STUV?
Points S and V
Are there more potential solutions to systems of inequalities in a half-plane or in the entire plane?
There are more solutions in a half plane
If three points are coplanar then are they collinear?
Not necessarily. Coplanar means that points lie on the same plane whereas collinear means that points lie on the same line. Points on a plane do not necessarily lie along the same line.
Any three points must be?
... in the same plane.
Does a plane containing two points of a line contains the entire line?
yes
Does a plane containing two points of a line always never or sometimes contain the entire line?
It contains the whole line.
What is postulate 8?
If two points are in a plane, then the line that contains the points is in that plane
The vertical axis is called the x-axis and the horizontal axis is called the y-axis what entire plane containing these is called the xy-plane?
legends a plane would be called the xy-plane if it had the x and y points on it Y axis
What are the names of four coplaner points?
coplaner points- are points lying on his the same plane,.. solution: plane R contains XY XY contains X and Y...
Is a line joining two points not necessarily in the plane containing the two points?
If it is a straight line it must be in the same plane. Otherwise not necessarily.
What are points called if there is a plane that contains all of them?
Coplanar.
If plane A contains points X and Y which line must the plane contain?
X and Y
What is the greatest number of planes that can pass through three collinear points?
The points are collinear, and there is an infinite number of planes that contain a given line. A plane containing the line can be rotated about the line by any number of degrees to form an unlimited number of other planes.If, on the other hand, the points are not collinear, then the plane has no wriggle room: it is stuck fast in one place - there can be only one plane containing all the points. Provided they are non-colinear, three points will define a plane.
Do planes contain exactly three points?
No. The tiniest piece of a plane contains an infinite number of points. But if you give us just three points, then we know exactly what plane you're talking about, and it can't be any other plane.
How many non-collinear points are there in one plane?
There are an infinite number of any kind of points in any plane. But once you have three ( 3 ) non-collinear points, you know exactly which plane they're in, because there's no other plane that contains the same three non-collinear points.
Does a plane contain at least three lines?
Yes- planes contain infinitely many points and every pair of points in plane determine a line in that plane, so every plane contains infinitely many lines.
