Point of intersection is where the point where 2 lines or a line and a plane meet, or in a 3-dimensional space three planes meet, or any other graphs that intersect in a point.

Point of concurrency is the intersection point of concurrent lines.

In geometry, two or more lines are said to be concurrent if they all pass through a single point.

For example, the perpendiculars bisectors of the sides of a triangle are concurrent and they meet at the point of concurrency.

So point of intersection may be the same as point of concurrency, but when it comes to examples other than lines, point of intersection is often used. When it comes to just lines, either one is ok.

What appears when you point to a corner of a table?

When you point to a corner of a table, you'll see the intersection of two sides, forming a right angle. This corner is where the edges meet and create a distinct point.


Where two things come together called?

A point where two things come together is often referred to as a junction, intersection, or meeting point. These terms imply a location where different paths or elements converge.


Which continent is located at the intersection of the 20 degrees North latitude and the prime meridian?

A set of latitude/longitude numbers nails down a single point on the Earth. The point can be located on a continent, but a whole continent can't be located at a point. The point 20° N / 0° is in the Sahara desert in northeast Mali, about 990 miles north of Accra, Ghana, and 1,050 miles east of Africa's Atlantic coast.


Explain what is meant by a concurrent vectors?

Concurrent vectors are vectors that have a common point of intersection. This means that when drawn with their initial point at the same point, their terminal points all meet at a single common point.


How do you interpret the solution of a system of equations by the corresponding graph?

The solution of a system of equations corresponds to the point where the graphs of the equations intersect. If the equations have one unique point of intersection, that point represents the solution of the system. If the graphs are parallel and do not intersect, the system has no solution. If the graphs overlap and coincide, the system has infinitely many solutions.

Yes. Incidentally, every point is a point of concurrency (for some set of lines).

Yes. Every point in the Cartesian plane is a point of concurrency for some set of lines.


What is the point of concurrency of an altitude of a triangle?

The point of concurrency of the altitudes in a triangle is the orthocenter, while the point of concurrency for the perpendicular bisectors is the centroid/circumcenter. Sorry if this is late! xD

Where is the point of concurrency of the angle bisectors of a triangle?

The point of concurrency of the angle bisectors of a triangle is called the incenter. The incenter is located at the intersection of the triangle's three angle bisectors and is equidistant from all three sides of the triangle. This point serves as the center of the inscribed circle (incircle), which is tangent to each side of the triangle.
