Yes since 3 non-collinear points determine a plane. Of course one can take any two of the three points and draw a line between them. There are an infinite number of planes going through this line. Now pick on more point, not on the line, and those three points uniquely determine a plane.

Three what points determine a plane?

Any three points will determine a plane, provided they are not collinear. If you pick any two points, you can draw a line to connect them. An infinite number of planes can be drawn that include the line. But if you pick a third point that does not lie on the line. There will be exactly one plane that will contain the line and that point you added last. Only oneplane can contain the line, which was determined by the first two points, and the last point.


What is formed by the intersection of a line and a plane if the line does not lie in the plane?

When a line intersects a plane and does not lie in the plane, the intersection forms a single point. This point is where the line crosses the plane. If the line is parallel to the plane, however, there will be no intersection point.


Can three points determined a plane?

Yes, three points determine a plane unless they are in a straight line. A plane is two dimensions a line is only one. You need a third point(not in the line) to define a plane.


Point A lies outside of plane P how many lines can be drawn parallel to plane P that pass through point A?

Only one line can be drawn parallel to plane P that passes through point A. This line will be oriented in the same direction as the plane, remaining equidistant from it. All other lines passing through point A will either intersect the plane or be skew to it.


Point is to line as line is to?

Plane. A point has no dimension, a line has one dimension, and a plane has two dimensions.
