How many points are needed to define a plane?
3
How many line segments can be drawn from two points?
There is only one line (or line segment) that can be drawn between two distince points.
How many different lines are determined by two points?
In classical or Euclidean plane geometry two points defines exactly one line. On a sphere two points can define infinitely many lines only one of which will represent the shortest distance between the points. On other curved surfaces, or in non-Euclidean geometries, the number of lines determined by two points can vary. Even in the Euclidean plane, two points determine infinitely many lines that are not straight!
How many line segments does 6 points have?

How many points does a line contain?

How many points are necessary to draw a straight line?
Only two are necessary to define a line. But infinitely many are required to DRAW it.
Give a line and a point not on the line how many planes do they define?
They define one plane. A line is defined by two points, and it takes three points to define a plane, so two points on the line, and one more point not on the line equals one plane.
How many points are needed to define a specific line?
Two.
How many points does a line have?
a line has to have at least 2 points.a plane has to have at least 3 points.______________It takes two points to define a unique line in Euclidean space. But every line and every line segment contains infinitely many points. The same is true for planes in Euclidean space. You need at least 3 points to define a unique plane, but every plane containes infinitely many points and infinitely many lines or line segments.
How many points determine exactly one line?
It takes exactly 2 distinct points to uniquely define a line, i.e. for any two distinct points, there is a unique line containing them.
In general how many planes are there which contain any number of given points?
There are no planes containing any number of given points. Two points not the same define a line. Three points not in a line define a plane. For four or more points to lie in the same plane, three can be arbitrary but not on the same line, but the fourth (and so on) points must lie in that same plane.
How many points define a plan?
4 points define a plane.
What are the 3 subset of a line define each subset?
A line has infinitely many subsets, not just three. Any collection of points on the line constitute a subset.
How many of non collinear points in plane?
Infinitely many. There are infinitely many points in the plane and although any pair of points define a line, no matter how many lines you are given, it is always possible to find a point that is not on any of them - that is, a point that is not collinear.
Can line segments be broken down into points?
A line segment consists of an infinite number of points. Depending on how you define "breaking it down", yes, it's possible. But of course not in a finite number of steps.
How many points a line have?
A line has an infinite amount of points.
