Question

for the following figure, complete the statement for the specified points. points r, s, and t are ______. neither collinear nor coplanar coplanar collinear both collinear and coplanar

Explanation:

1. Recall the definitions:

• Collinear points lie on the same straight line.
• Coplanar points lie on the same plane.

1. Observe the figure: Points \( R \), \( S \), and \( T \) appear to lie on a single straight line (as seen from the diagram, they are aligned along a line).
2. Since they lie on a straight line, they are collinear. They may or may not be coplanar, but the key here is their alignment on a line, so the correct description is collinear.

Answer:

collinear
