- Why are points and lines hard to define? Does drawing a point or a line accurately illustrate its characteristics?

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

when we draw a point, we draw a very very very small line...one can see how this might lead to a problem. consider a line that is 1 inch long, well what if we wanted to look at 1/1000 th of that line; it would still be a line. but if we drew it, it would look like a point....
