Math Problem Statement
Which three points in the figure are collinear?
Solution
The term "collinear" refers to points that lie on the same straight line. Looking at the provided figure, we can see different points and lines intersecting across two planes.
From the diagram:
- Points Y, X, and B all lie on the same straight line within one of the planes. This makes them collinear.
Thus, the correct answer is:
- Y, X, B

- Can two lines in different planes ever be parallel?
Tip: To determine if points are collinear, always check if they align perfectly on the same straight path.
