Find the truth value in each statement (true or false). 1) E lies in plane R. 2) CD←→ lies in plane F. 3) C, E, and D are coplanar. 4) Plane F contains ED−→−. 5) B and E are collinear. 6) BC←→ contains F and R.
Coplanar means that the points share a plane. Colinear means the points are on the same line. Line CD appears to lie on plane F. Points C and D lie on plane F, and point E lies on plane R. I cannot tell if segment ED even exists... B and E do not appear to be on the same line. I hope this helps!
Dont they lie on multiple planes?
@AlexaDominique
Which ones?
All of them
Hmmm...the only points that seem to appear on both planes are B and C.
Look both the planes go throught each other
Yes, but only notice that line BC touch both planes at one time. The others are only touching one plane at one time.
:O
Haha did you just have a light bulb moment?
Pretty much
Please check this @AlexaDominique
Ahh! You have numbers 2, 3, and 5 backwards! Number 2 should be TRUE because line CD DOES lie on plane F. Look very closely! Number 3 should be FALSE. Remember that coplanar means that all the points share a plane. Although C and D are both on plane F, E is on plane R. Number 5 should be FALSE. Remember that colinear means that two points share the same line. B and E are not on the same line. Other than that, I think you're good.
:I
Don't give up! It can be tricky looking at problems like this.
