Question
In how many lines two distinct planes can intersect?
Advertisements
Solution
If we look at two intersecting plane, we can see that there is only one unique line at which the two planes intersect.
Therefore, two distinct planes can intersect each other at a single unique line as only a single line is common between two intersecting planes.

Read the following statement :
An equilateral triangle is a polygon made up of three line segments out of which two line segments are equal to the third one and all its angles are 60° each.
Define the terms used in this definition which you feel necessary. Are there any undefined terms in this? Can you justify that all sides and all angles are equal in a equilateral triangle.
Read the following two statements which are taken as axioms:
- If two lines intersect each other, then the vertically opposite angles are not equal.
- If a ray stands on a line, then the sum of two adjacent angles so formed is equal to 180°.
Is this system of axioms consistent? Justify your answer.
Read the following axioms:
- Things which are equal to the same thing are equal to one another.
- If equals are added to equals, the wholes are equal.
- Things which are double of the same thing are equal to one another.
Check whether the given system of axioms is consistent or inconsistent.
