    A plane in math has the following properties: 1. If there are two distinct planes, then they are either parallel to each other or intersecting in a line. 2. A lineis either parallel to a plane, intersects the plane at a single point, or exists in the plane. 3. If there are two distinct lines, which are perpendicularto the same plane, then they must...

    A point is defined as a specific or precise location on a piece of paper or a flat surface, represented by a dot. It has no width. A point has zero dimensions.

    A line is a combination of infinite points together. It extends in both directions. It has one dimension. The planes are difficult to draw because you have to draw the edges. But it is important to understand that the plane does not actually have edges, and it extends infinitely in all directions. The plane has two dimensions - length and width. Ho...

    In three-dimensional space, planes are all the flat surfaces on any one side of it. For example in the cuboid given below, all six faces of cuboid, those are, AEFB, BFGC, CGHD, DHEA, EHGF, and ADCB are planes. They all have only two dimensions - length and breadth. Parallel planes are planes that never intersect. The below figure shows two planes, ...
