Some planes are parallel and don't intersect at all.
Those that do intersect (and that are not coincident, i.e. the same plane) intersect in a line.

Where do two planes intersect?
In geometry, two planes intersect in a line. The only time this is not true is if the two planes are parallel to each other.
What do you call two planes that intersect?
Two planes that intersect are simply called a plane to plane intersection. When they intersect, the intersection point is simply called a line.
If two planes intersect than they intersect at exactaly one point?
Yes. If two planes are not coincident (the same plane) and are not parallel, then they intersect in one straight line.
Can two lines never intersect but not be parallel?
If the lines are in the same plane and never intersect they are always parallel. Two line can not intersect and be parallel if they are in different planes though. Take a cube for example, if you have one Sid of it and take the edge and then go to the opposite side and make a horizontal line they will never intersect but are also not parallel.
Does a transversal line have to intersect with two parallel lines?
Yes, a transversal line always intersects two parallel lines.
Do two planes intersect at a point or a line?
Two planes intersect at a line
Are there always Two planes intersect in a line?
No. Two planes may be parallel and so may not intersect. Also, any line is the intersection of infinitely many planes, not just two.
If two planes intersect what is their intersection called?
A line. When two planes intersect, their intersection is a line.
Two planes always intersect in what geometric figure?
The intersection of two planes is one straight line.
Can a given line be in two planes?
Two planes intersect at a line. The line where they intersect pertains to both planes. In the same manner, if infinitely many planes intersect each other at the same line, then that line pertains to the infinitely many planes.
When two planes intersect do they intersect in a straight line?
Yes. If two planes are not coincident (the same plane) and are not parallel, then they intersect in one straight line.
Can two planes intersect in a ray or a segment explain why?
In 3d space, two planes will always intersect at a line...unless of course they are the same plane (they coincide). Because planes are infinite in both directions, there is no end point (as in a ray or segment). So, your answer is neither, planes intersect at a line.
How many Two planes intersect in exactly?
Two distinct planes will intersect in one straight line.
What occurs when two planes intersect?
The intersection of two planes is a line.
Where do two planes intersect?

Two planes intersect in a line?
Yes, the intersection of 2 planes is a line.
When two planes intersect what do they form?
A line
