Question

for the following figure, complete the statement for the specified points. point a, b, and q are ______. both collinear and coplanar coplanar collinear neither collinear nor 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 A, B, and Q appear to lie on the same flat surface (the parallelogram - shaped plane), so they are coplanar. They do not lie on a single straight line, so they are not collinear. Thus, the correct description is coplanar.

Answer:

coplanar
