Question
is the following statement true or false? the intersection of a plane and a line can be a line segment. true false
Brief Explanations
A line is infinite in both directions. When intersecting a plane, there are only three possibilities: no intersection (line is parallel and outside the plane), a single point (line cuts through the plane), or the entire infinite line (line lies entirely within the plane). A line segment is a finite portion of a line, which cannot result from this intersection.
