Question

for use with the lesson \identify points, lines, and planes\ use the diagram to decide whether the given statement is true or false. 1. points h, i, and g are collinear. 2. points h, i, and j are coplanar. 3. $overrightarrow{eg}$ and $overrightarrow{fg}$ are opposite rays. 4. all points on $overrightarrow{gi}$ and $overrightarrow{gf}$ are coplanar. 5. the intersection of $overleftrightarrow{ef}$ and plane jkh is $overleftrightarrow{hi}$. 6. the intersection of $overleftrightarrow{ef}$, $overleftrightarrow{hi}$, and $overleftrightarrow{jg}$ is point g. 7. the intersection of plane egh and plane jgi is point g. 8. the intersection of plane efi and plane jkg is $overleftrightarrow{hg}$.

Explanation:

Response
1. Points \( H \), \( I \), and \( G \) are collinear.

Step1: Recall collinear definition

Collinear points lie on the same line.

Step2: Analyze diagram

From the diagram, \( H \), \( G \), \( I \) do not lie on a single straight line (they are in different planes or positions not forming a line). So the statement is false.

2. Points \( H \), \( I \), and \( J \) are coplanar.

Step1: Recall coplanar definition

Coplanar points lie on the same plane.

Step2: Analyze diagram

Points \( H \), \( I \), \( J \) lie on the plane that contains the line \( HI \) and the line \( JG \) (the vertical plane and the horizontal plane intersect, and these points are on the intersection - related plane or a common plane). So they are coplanar, statement is true.

3. \( \overrightarrow{EG} \) and \( \overrightarrow{FG} \) are opposite rays.

Step1: Recall opposite rays definition

Opposite rays have the same endpoint and form a straight line (are collinear and extend in opposite directions).

Step2: Analyze diagram

\( \overrightarrow{EG} \) and \( \overrightarrow{FG} \) have the same endpoint \( G \) and lie on the straight line \( EF \), extending in opposite directions. So they are opposite rays, statement is true.

4. All points on \( \overrightarrow{GI} \) and \( \overrightarrow{GF} \) are coplanar.

Answer:

False
