Study Notes

  • A point is a dot in space.
  • A segment connects two points and has a beginning and an end.
  • An array or ray has a beginning but no end and one arrow.
  • A line has no beginning or end and extends infinitely in two directions.
  • Points are collinear if they lie on the same line.
  • Three or more collinear points determine exactly one plane.
  • Coplanar points lie on the same plane.
  • Non-coplanar points do not lie on the same plane.
  • A plane can be determined by three non-collinear points, a line and a point, or two parallel lines.
  • Two intersecting lines share the same plane.
  • Coplanar lines exist on the same plane.
  • Coplanar segments share the same plane as the segments they connect.
  • Points determine the plane they lie on.
  • Intersection of two planes is a line.
  • A line and a point determine the plane they belong to.
