The three point line is a line around the perimeter that if you shoot out of it and make it, it counts as 3 points.
For internationals, it is between 6.6 and 6.75 metres away.
The three-point line was introduced in the NBA during the 1979-1980 season. It was implemented to add excitement to the game and encourage long-range shooting. The NCAA adopted the three-point line later, in the 1986-1987 season. Since then, it has become a pivotal aspect of basketball strategy and gameplay.

The three-point shot was introduced into NCAA men's basketball during the 1986-1987 season. The rule was implemented to add excitement to the game and encourage more scoring. In women's basketball, the three-point line was adopted a year later, in the 1987-1988 season. The addition of the three-point shot has significantly impacted game strategies and player development in college basketball.
The distance of the three-point line in basketball varies by league. In the NBA, it is 23.75 feet (7.24 meters) from the basket at the top of the arc, while it is 22 feet (6.7 meters) in the corners. In college basketball, the line is set at 22.1 feet (6.7 meters). These measurements can differ in international play as well.
Well, I think you mean what is the three point line... well the three point line in basketball is a designated arc line radiating from the basket. If a player shoots beyond the three point line, it counts as three points while if you shoot inside the three point line, it only counts as two points.

In professional basketball, the distance of the three-point line varies by league. In the NBA, the three-point line is approximately 7.24 meters (23.75 feet) from the basket at its farthest point, while in international play (FIBA), it is set at 6.75 meters (22.15 feet). College basketball also uses a distance of 7.24 meters.
The parts of the basketball court are: the three-point line, the key, the base line, the free throw line, the sideline and the half-court line.
Prior to the three point shot being implemented, there was no three point line on the court.
Two-point shots in basketball are shots taken from inside the three-point line, which are worth two points. Three-point shots are taken from beyond the three-point line and are worth three points. The main difference is the distance from the basket and the number of points awarded for each shot.
There are no "goals" in basketball. You score by making a two-pointer (inside the three-point line), a three-pointer outside of the three point line), or a free throw which is worth one point( you get those if you get fouled inside the paint).
