The most typical hinge joints is the elbow, which attaches the Humerus to the Radius and Ulna.
Some say the interphalangeal joints between the bones in your fingers are hinge joints; others call them condyloid joints
Hinge joints that are a bit atypical, as they allow some limited rotation include the:
knee, or tibiofemoral joint. This is the largest hinge joint. The patellofemoral joint, between the kneecap and thighbone, is not a hinge joint.. The knee is sometimes considered a modified hinge joint or a pivotal hinge joint.
The Ankle is not a good example, its a saddle joint.
The jaw (the temperomandibular joint) is sometimes called a hinge joint, but it has a gliding component as well and has more motion than a typical hinge joint.
Hinge joints are synovial joints that only move on one plane (ex you can bring your arm up at your elbow but you can bend it sideways without rotating your shoulder.
Generally, a hinge joint is found between two bones that move in two opposite directions (flexion and extension), as opposed to in many directions. For comparison, the hip joint and shoulder are not hinge joints, since they move the adjoining limb in several directions.

What type of joint that permits movement in one plane?
A hinge joint. Using your knee as an example of what this means: Standing up you can bend the knee so that your leg is bent behind you, but you cannt twist it or move it in any other way. This is what it is meant by only one plane of movement. Other joints such as your shoulder allow you to move your arm in many different ways meaning it has several planes of movement.
