To verify:The three points determine a line.

Answer to Problem 6CE
The three points can determine a line if the three points are collinear and three lines if the points are non-collinear
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The two points determine a line.
Formula used:
A line contains at least two points
Calculation:
Consider the following Statement and give reasoning to state ft it is true or false
“Do three points determine a line?”
From Postulate 5
“A line contains at least two points.”
Therefore, three points can determine one line if three points are collinear and three lines it the points are non-collinear
Hence, the answer is “three points can determine a line if the three points are collinear and three lines if the points are non-collinear.”
Conclusion:
The three points can determine a line if the three points are collinear and three lines if the points are non-collinear
