through any three points there is at least one line. Is this true or false? If false how does it work?

Question

Math Question

Answer 1

False. Through any 3 points there is at least one plane.

Think about it, if the 3 points make a triangle, you cannot connect them with one single line.

Answer 2

not sure I can answer this from a mathematicians standpoint, but think about it.

for any three points it is possible to draw a single line that always includes at least two of them. Therefore in a special case, the third point would also lie on that line.

If the third point did not lie on that line, then at least two other lines would be required to connect that point with both other points, yielding three lines, which satisfies your inquiry to whether it is true, because 3 >= 1.

Perhaps thinking about this another way. A two-dimensonal plane can be drawn through any three points in a three-dimensional space. Reducing the dimensionality of that three-space to two will yield a line.

Answer 3

On a plane, you can draw a line between any two points. There is an one-math exception, if all the points are on top of each other. ... But then they are the same point.

A math extension is that if all three points are in a line so that you can connect them with one line.

So, if you draw three points anywhere, then you can connect at least two of the points with one line.

Answer 4

Take your pencil and play around with groupings of three dots on a piece of paper. See if you can always find a line that goes through them. Shouldn't take more than a couple minutes for you to work out the answer to this one for yourself.

Answer 5

this statement is false..through any 2 points there is 1 line..if the 3rd point lies on that line then these 3 points are called collinear..through 3 points there is 1 circle or 1plane..

Answer 6

its false
there are at least three points in any one line but not necessarily the other way around

Answer 7

True. You didn't say whether it was supposed to be a straight line or not.

Answer 8

true
