If four points are collinear they are also coplanar?
Yes, since any line can be contained in a plane.
What is coplanar points?
Definition of Coplanar points: Coplanar means that the points are on the equal plane. Plane is a two-dimensional object, with as such is a bit more complicated.Collinear,line,plane and point are the related terms of coplanar.Points that are on the same plane. 2 points are alwayscoplanar...3 points are always coplanar...4 points are sometimes coplanar.
What are the three points for coplanar but not collinear?
Two points (which must lie on a line) and the third point NOT on that line.
What is a line that intersects 2 coplanar lines at different points?
A transverse line.
What are points that do not lie on the same line?
Coplanar pointsNon-collinear.
If four points are collinear they are also coplanar?
Yes, since any line can be contained in a plane.
What are non coplanar points?
Coplanar Points are points that lie on the same line.
A line and a point not on the line are never coplanar?
No, they always are From Wikipedia.org, "The World's Encyclopedia" when I searched coplanar In geometry, a set of points in space is coplanar if the points all lie in the same geometric plane. For example, three distinct points are always coplanar; but four points in space are usually not coplanar. Since 3 points are always coplanar. A point and line are always coplanar
Can coplanar points lie on the same line?
Yes, of course! By definition a line is a planar figure, and all the points of the line are therefore coplanar.
A line that intersects two coplanar lines at two distinct points is called what?
transversal
Are a plane and a point not on the plane always coplanar?
No. In order to be coplanar, points have to be in the line.
Differentiate of collinear points and coplanar points?
Collinear points are points that lie on the same line, while coplanar points are points that lie on the same plane.

What is the meaning of non- coplanar?
points that are not on the same line
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.
What are the three points for coplanar but not collinear?
Two points (which must lie on a line) and the third point NOT on that line.
If four points are coplanar then they are noncollinear?
They need not be. The four vertices of a quadrilateral are coplanar but NOT collinear. On the other hand, any line (in Eucledian geometry) has an infinite number of points on it - all of which are coplanar.
