1. What does it mean for points to be collinear? coplanar? 2. What do you call two rays that have the same endpoint and form a line? 3. Can a line intersect a plane in only two points? Explain. 4. How do you name geometric figures?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

1. collinear = points on the same line coplanar = points in the same plane

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

2. remember the other problem? two rays w/ the same endpoint and form a line are opposite rays

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 2 is two rays w/ the same endpoint and form a line are opposite rays

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

right...

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

3. to figure this one out, try drawing a line through a plane and seeing how many times it can intersect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

only once. ITs like If you put a pencil through a piece of paper, it's only going to cross the paper in one place

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

right

#4 the teacher didnt really explain........

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

4. I'm not really sure, it would depend on which geometric figure you're talking about

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

as an example, you name a line by picking 2 points, you name an angle by picking either 3 points, or the vertex, etc.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is mainly on plains and points like that

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

well, in short: point: one letter line/line segment: two points plane: three points angle: three points, or the vertex ray: two points, with the endpoint first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So that could be the answer?

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

well, it's a start, I would flesh it out with more details, and in complete sentences, etc.
