Q:

Plot three points on the coordinate plane and label them A, B, and C. (Be sure that all three points do not lle in a straight line.) Now join the pointstwo at a time using straight paths. How many unique straight paths can you make through the points? Which geometric figure is formed?

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:3 unique straight paths.Triangle ABCStep-by-step explanation:Three points A, B and C lie on the coordinate plane and do not lie in a straight line.Join the points A and B to get line AB;Join the point A and C to get line AC;Join the points B and C to get line BC.Hence, there are three unique straight paths.These three lines together form the triangle ABC (see attached diagram).
