Which statement about the figure is false? http://www.thelearningodyssey.com/Assess/DPT/QIEImagesStorage/HSLQ_/HSLQ_GE13A01_M_stem2_1.jpg A. Points D, B, and C are coplanar. B. Line AB lies on plane BCD. C. Lines AE and BC intersect at point B. D. Points A, B, and E are collinear.

whats your best guess

I think is D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or maybe C

Ok - I think (B) is the false statement in this set. But let's discuss why this is the case.

Miracrown (miracrown):

First, let's see why (D) is true. If we look at points A, B, and E, we see they all lie on the same line.

Miracrown (miracrown):

So A, B, and E are colinear in this case.

Miracrown (miracrown):

We also see from the vertical line that line AB is not in the plane of DBC. So B is false for this question.
