It was invented by Eddie Rios Mellado in Vieques, Puerto Rico during the 1940's. My father is from Vieques and he was a student on that era and remebers Mr. Rios' setting the 3 point line.
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.

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).
