Question

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 points
two at a time using straight paths. How many unique straight paths can you make through the points? Which geometric figure is formed?

Answer 1

Answer:

3 unique straight paths.

Triangle ABC

Step-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).

Answer 2

Answer:

It is possible to make three unique straight paths, AB, BC, and AC . Together, the three paths form a triangle.
