The intersection of three planes is either a point, a line, or there is no intersection if any two of the planes are parallel to each other.

This tells us about possible solutions to 3 equations in 3 unknowns. There may be one solution, no solution, or infinite number of solutions.

Can three planes intersect in a point?

yes, three planes can intersect in one 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...


What happens when three planes intersect?

Nothing HAPPENS! They can intersect in a point or a line.


Can Three distinct planes can intersect at a point?

yes


Is it true that three planes can intersect in only one point?

The intersection of three planes can be a plane (if they are coplanar), a line, or a point.


Can two planes in three-dimensional space intersect at one point?

No, they intersect at a line.


Could three planes intersect in exactly one point?

no


Do planes intersect at a point?

No, planes intersect at a line.


Can two planes in three dimensional space intersect at one point?

No, the two planes intersect at a line, which is an infinite number of points.


Can 2 distinct planes intersect at a point?

No, two distinct planes in three-dimensional space cannot intersect at just a single point. They can either be parallel and not intersect at all, or they can intersect along a line. If they intersect, the intersection will always be a line rather than a single point.


Three planes may all intersect each other at exactly one point?

Three planes may all intersect each other at exactly one point. This commonly occurs when there is one straight plane and two other planes intersect it at acute or obtuse angles.
