Examples.
Identifying Collinear Points
In the figure at right,name three points that are collinear and three pointsthat are not collinear.Points ,,and lie on a line,so they arecollinear.Any other set of three points in the figure do not lie on a line,so no other set of three points is collinear.For example,
X
,
Y
,and
Z
form a and are not collinear.
Naming a Plane
Name the plane shown in two different ways.You can name a plane usingSome possible names for the plane shown are the following:plane ,plane ,plane ,plane ,and plane .
Finding the Intersection of Two Planes
Use the diagram at right.What is the intersection of plane
HGC
and plane
AED
?As you look at the cube,the front face is on plane
AEFB
,the back faceis on plane
HGC
,and the left face is on plane
AED
.The back and leftfaces of the cube intersect at .Planes

and
AED
intersectvertically at .
