Really quick geometry term definition help? (It must be really simple, it seems so easy but it's tripping me up. lol.)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which statement best compares a line and a point? A line can lie on a plane, whereas a point cannot lie on a plane. A point has no dimension and a line has one dimension. A line can have line segments on it, whereas a point cannot be on any line segment. A point is a location, whereas a line has several planes located on it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I thought D, but I think I'm mixing up how many planes they lie on.

@jojo4eva @ganeshie8 or somebody?

OpenStudy (kainui):

It might be pushing it to say D. Sure, a line is the intersection of at least 2 planes, but it's kind of vague "located on it". I'd have to honestly go with B, since that makes a little more sense to me. An volume is 3 dimensional, an area is 2D, a line is 1D and a point has no dimensions.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That makes sense. I'll try B. Thanks.

OpenStudy (jojo4eva):

im sorry @quixoticideals i was on another screen and didnt even see it

It's ok
