What kind of plane has 3 points?
Every plane has 3 or more. There is a projective (or affine) plane with only 3 points.
Can three points be noncoplanar?
No, A plane can be drawn through any 3 points. If the 3 points are collinear then they make a line and a plane can contain a line. If the points are noncollinear then they can be used to form the corners of a triangle; all points of a triangle are in the same plane.
How many points can be on one plane?
A minimum of three points are required to define a plne (if they are not collinear). And in projective geometry you can have a plane with only 3 points. Boring, but true. In normal circumstances, a plane will have infinitely many points. Not only that, there are infinitely many in the tiniest portion of the plane.
What three points determine a pane?
Any 3 geometric points, as long as they are all in different locations and not superimposed on each other, will define a plane. In other words, there is only one plane that can pass through 3 distinct points. If you had only two points, it would define a line, but not a plane. A plane can include 2 points but if there are only 2 that are specified, the plane can rotate around those 2 points, generating infinitely many planes.
How many points do you need to determine a unique plane?
a plane is any plane surface it usually have 3 or 4 points * * * * * You need only three points provided they are not collinear. And most planes have infinitely many points although there are geometries with only a finite number of points.
