The fact is that if you have one straight line, there are an infinite number of planes in which it lies. One can see this by simply rotating the plane around the line. Thus, "a line lies in at least one plane" is a true statement.

A plane and a line intersect at a?

A point - unless the line lies within the plane, or is parallel to it.


Does a line passing through two distinct points in one plane sometimes lies in that plane?

Always


Can two lines that coincide lie in at least one plane?

Two lines that coincide look and act exactly like a single line. If you have one straight line, there are an infinite number of planes in which it lies.


What is it called when one line lies in a plane and one that does not lie in the plane?

When one line lies in a plane and another line does not lie in that plane, the two lines are referred to as "skew lines." Skew lines are non-parallel lines that do not intersect and are not coplanar. This means that, while one line exists entirely within the plane, the other line exists in a different three-dimensional space, making them distinct from parallel lines, which exist in the same plane.


What is the intersection of a line and a plane?

The intersection of a line and a plane can result in either a single point, if the line passes through the plane, or no intersection at all if the line is parallel to the plane and does not touch it. In some cases, if the line lies entirely within the plane, every point on the line will be an intersection point. Thus, the nature of the intersection depends on the relative positions of the line and the plane.


What type of intersections happen between lines and planes?

A line that does not lie within a plane and intersects the plane does so at one point.A line that lies within a plane intersects the plane at all points.


How do you find if a line lies on a point on the cartesian plane?

You first look at each axes


True or false p lies in plane b the line containing p and q must lie in plane b?

False. In order for the line PQ to lie in plane B, then both P and Q must lie in plane B.


Must any lines lies in vertical plane be a vertical line?

That depends. How tough do you think it would be to draw a horizontal line or a slanting line on the wall ?


Can a plane and a line ever intersect in two points?

In Euclidean geometry, they can only intersect in 0, 1 or infinitely many points. If there are two points of intersection then the whole line lies in the plane.
