Three.


How many points define a plan?

4 points define a plane.


How many non collinear points are needed to create a plane?

To create a plane, infinitely many. But to uniquely define one, 3 are enough.


How many points are needed to define a unique plane Are they any restrictions on the location of these points?

A unique plane is defined by three non-collinear points. This means that the points must not all lie on the same straight line. If the three points are collinear or if only two points are given, they do not suffice to define a unique plane. Thus, the key restriction is that the three points must be non-collinear.


How many non-collinear points define a plane?

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 make a plane?

It takes three points to make a plane. The points need to be non-co-linear. These three points define a distinct plane, but the plane can be made up of an infinite set of points.


How many points are needed to define an angle?

How many points can be on one plane?

A minimum of three points are required to define a plne (if they are not collinear). And in projective geometry you can have a plane with only 3 points. Boring, but true. In normal circumstances, a plane will have infinitely many points. Not only that, there are infinitely many in the tiniest portion of the plane.

How many points are needed to define a specific line?

Two.


What would happen if three collinear points are used to define a plane?

Three collinear points don't define a plane."Define" means narrow it down to one and only one unique plane, so that it can't be confused with any other one.There are many different planes (actually infinite) that can contain three collinear points, so no unique plane is defined.
