If a plane contains one point of a line then it must contain the entire line?

No, a plane can contain only one point of a line. Picture a piece of paper with a pencil stabbed through it. The paper is the plane, and the pencil is the line. The pencil/line only touches the paper/plane at one point.
Hope this helped! If it did, please recommend me. -Brad

Can a plane contain one point of a line?
Yes, it can. A plane can contain any number of points of a line.
What is used to locate a point on the coordinate plane?
What is used to locate a point in a coordinate plane
What is the set of all points in the plane equidistant from one point in the plane?
The set of all points in the plane equidistant from one point in the plane is named a parabola.
What is the intersection of a plane and a line not on the plane?
point * * * * * or, nothing (if the line is parallel to the plane).
Do planes contain ponts and lines?
A point is a single spot in space. A line is the connection between two points. A plane is the space made up between three or more lines. A plane has infinite lines and therefore infinite points.
Can a plane contain one point of a line?
Yes, it can. A plane can contain any number of points of a line.
A line and a point on a line always contain in one plane?
yah
Only one plane can pass through one line and a point that is not on the line?
I'd feel a lot more comfortable if you said "... can contain one line and a point ...".When you say "pass through one line", I picture a sword passing through a tight pieceof string. If that's how your plane passes through the line, then the statement in your"question" is false. If your plane contains the line and the extra point, then the statementis true ... only one plane can do that.
Which quadrant contains the point named 25?
If you mean point (2, 5) then it is in the 1st quadrant on the Cartesian plane
How many planes can contain three point at the same time?
Only one plane can contain three specific points.
If a line intersects a plane that does not contain the line then the intersection is exactly one point?
Yes.
What is a saddle point?
A saddle point is a point in the range of a smooth function every neighbourhood of which contains points on each side of its tangent plane.
What Point S is not on line k. How many different planes contain both point S and line k?
There is only one such plane.
Where does a plane and a line intersect?
In most cases, in a single point. It is also possible that there is no intersection, or that the intersection is the entire line.
How many points are you a intersection of a line and a plane?
There are two possible answers; if the line is crossing the plane at an angle, then the line and the plane only intersect at one point. However, if the line is part of the plane, then the entire line intersects with the plane, and there are an infinite number of intersecting points.
Is the statement a plane contains at least three lines always true?
No, you could define a plane as comprising only two lines.
Three what points determine a plane?
Any three points will determine a plane, provided they are not collinear. If you pick any two points, you can draw a line to connect them. An infinite number of planes can be drawn that include the line. But if you pick a third point that does not lie on the line. There will be exactly one plane that will contain the line and that point you added last. Only oneplane can contain the line, which was determined by the first two points, and the last point.
