Question

is the following statement true or false? the intersection of a plane and a ray can be a line segment. true false

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A ray has a fixed starting point and extends infinitely in one direction. The intersection of a plane and a ray can only be: no points (if the ray doesn’t intersect the plane), a single point (if the ray touches the plane at one point), or the entire ray (if the ray lies on the plane). A line segment has two endpoints, which the ray’s intersection cannot form—so the statement is false.

Answer:

false
