If two planes intersect what is their intersection called?
A line. When two planes intersect, their intersection is a line.
If two planes intersect do they intersect in exactly one plane?
No, two planes do not intersect in exactly one plane unless the planes are exactly overlapping, making one plane. In Euclidean Geometry two planes intersect in exactly one line.
How many Two planes intersect in exactly?
Two distinct planes will intersect in 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.
Can two planes intersect in infinitely many points?
yes, it may be the two plane intersect at one line or the two planes are coincident.
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 planes must intersect to from a line?
A line segment can be defined as having two endpoints
Do two planes intersect at a point or a line?
Two planes intersect at a line
Which figure could be the intersection of two planes a line a ray a point or segment?
A line or a ray - depending on whether the planes are finite or infinite.
If two planes intersect what is their intersection called?
A line. When two planes intersect, their intersection is a line.
If two planes intersect do they intersect in exactly one plane?
No, two planes do not intersect in exactly one plane unless the planes are exactly overlapping, making one plane. In Euclidean Geometry two planes intersect in exactly one 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 are two planes that do not intersect?
parallel planes
How many Two planes intersect in exactly?
Two distinct planes will intersect in one straight line.
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.
How do you determine the angle between two planes if the planes intersect at a point?
The angle between two planes when the planes intersect at a point is the acute angle fixed by the normal vectors of the planes.
What occurs when two planes intersect?
The intersection of two planes is a line.
