Asked by maham237 @ in Mathematics viewed by 292 People


a. A line and a point can be collinear.
b. A point has no location, and a line has many points located on it.
c. A point and a line do not have any dimensions to measure.
d. A line and a point lie on different planes.

Answered by maham237 @



“A line and a point can be collinear” is
correct about a line and a point.



In geometry a line:





• is straight (no curves),

• has no thickness, and

• extends in both directions without end (infinitely).



In
modern mathematics, a
point refers
usually to an element of some set called a space. More specifically, in
Euclidean geometry, a
point is
a primitive notion upon which the geometry is built.



The correct answer between all
the choices given is the first choice or letter A. I am hoping that this answer
has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and
if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
