Two planes intersect at a line


What happens when planes and lines intersect?

They intersect at a point


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...


How do you determine the angle between two planes if the planes intersect at a point?

The angle between two planes when the planes intersect at a point is the acute angle fixed by the normal vectors of the planes.


Does two intersecting planes always sometimes never intersect in exactly one point?

Never.


Can two planes intersect in a ray or a segment explain why?

In 3d space, two planes will always intersect at a line...unless of course they are the same plane (they coincide). Because planes are infinite in both directions, there is no end point (as in a ray or segment). So, your answer is neither, planes intersect at a line.


Can intersecting planes always intersect in exactly one point?

The intersection of two planes is never a point. It's usually a line. But if the planes have identical characteristics, then their intersection is a plane. And if the planes are parallel, then there's no intersection.


Do two planes intersect in a sinlge point?

Do two planes intersect in infinitely many points?

No, perpendicular planes intercept at only one point. Parallel planes do not intersect at all.
