Question

Which statement best compares a line and a point? A line can lie on a plane, whereas a point cannot lie on a plane. A point has no dimension, and a line has one dimension. A line can have line segments on it, whereas a point cannot be on any line segment. A point is a location, whereas a line has several planes located on it.

Answer 1

Hi there!

A point has no dimension, and a line had one dimension.
A point is just a spot, while a line goes across, so that is the answer.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The statement that best compares a line and a point is:

A point has no dimension, and a line has one dimension.

Explanation:

• In geometry a point is just a location.

It has no dimensions i.e. it has no width, length or depth.

It is denoted by a dot.

• Line is defined as a line of points that extends infinitely in both the direction.

It is one dimensional ( Since it has just one dimension i.e. length )

Hence, the correct option is:

A point has no dimension, and a line has one dimension.
