What does the math term noncollinear mean?
Since collinear is points that lie on the same line, and you need two points to form a line so those 2 points are collinear. So the opposite of that is noncollinear.
What is the difference between collinear and non collinear?
In order for three or more points to be collinear, they must lie on the same line. Two points would always be collinear. Noncollinear are points that do not lie in the same line.
Can noncollinear parts lie on the same plane?
Yes. In fact any three points that are not collinear define a plane and therefore MUST lie on a plane.
Differentiate of collinear points and coplanar points?
Collinear points are points that lie on the same line, while coplanar points are points that lie on the same plane.
Do three coplanar points lie on the same line?
They lie in the same plane, but they don't necessarily have to lie on the same line. Every triangle consists of three points that are coplanar but non-colinear.
