Is s three is the least number of points that can be used to define a plane?

yes, three points in the least number of points that can be used to define a plane. if you used two points you would only have a line, and one point is a point


What would happen if three collinear points are used to define a plane?

Three collinear points don't define a plane."Define" means narrow it down to one and only one unique plane, so that it can't be confused with any other one.There are many different planes (actually infinite) that can contain three collinear points, so no unique plane is defined.


How many points are used to name a plane?

What is used to locate the coordinate plane?

Ordered pairs are used to locate points on the coordinate plane.


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.


What is the answer for a grid that is used for location points on a plane using ordered number pairs?

Why must there be at least two lines on any given plane?

A single line is not sufficient to define a plane. You can find a plane such that the line is in it. But if you then rotate the plane using that line as the axis of rotation, you can get an infinite number of planes such that the line belongs to each and every one of the planes.


What is used to locate points x y in the coordinate plane?

It is the straight line equation that can be used to locate coordinates of x and y on the Cartesian plane


Although the locus of points idea can be used to define a straight line and circle more complex shapes such as parabolas must be defined a different way. True or False?

Certainly false for parabolae; a parabola is the locus of points in a plane which are equidistant from a point (the focus) and a line (the directrix) in that plane. It's also false for an ellipse, which is the locus of points in a plane where the sum of the distances from two other points in that plane (the foci) is constant. AND false for a hyperbola, which is the locus of points in a plane where the absolute value of the DIFFERENCE in the distance from two points in that plane (also the foci) is constant. Alternatively, a hyperbola is the locus of points in a plane where the ratio of the distance to one of the foci and to a line (the directrix) is constant (which is larger than 1; if it's exactly equal to 1, you get a parabola instead).All of these are only slightly more complicated than circles, and in fact they, alone with circles, are called "conic sections" because they all are formed by the intersection of a plane with a right circular conical surface.


How many different ways can a number pair graph be used pair?

There are infinitely many ways to use graphs. Number pairs are used to define points in the Cartesian coordinate system, which is the most widely used type of graph.
