Which of the following CANNOT occur when a line is in the same plane as a triangle ?

A

The points of the line inside the triangle and on the perimeter of the triangle divide the triangle into a triangle and a quadrilateral.

B

The line has exactly three points in common with the perimeter of the triangle.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, "Which of the following CANNOT occur when a line is in the same plane as a triangle?", we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Problem**: We need to determine which scenario involving a line and a triangle cannot happen when both are in the same plane. 2. **Evaluate Option A**: - The statement is: "The point of the line inside the triangle on the perimeter divides the triangle into a triangle and a quadrilateral." - **Analysis**: If a line intersects the triangle and is on the perimeter, it can indeed create a triangle and a quadrilateral. This is possible. - **Conclusion**: Option A can occur. 3. **Evaluate Option B**: - The statement is: "The line has exactly three points in common with the perimeter of the triangle." - **Analysis**: A line can intersect a triangle at most at two points (if it intersects at all) or can be a side of the triangle (in which case it has infinite points in common). It cannot have exactly three points of intersection with the perimeter. - **Conclusion**: Option B cannot occur. 4. **Evaluate Option C**: - The statement is: "The line has exactly one point in common with the perimeter of the triangle." - **Analysis**: This is possible if the line touches the triangle at just one point (tangentially). - **Conclusion**: Option C can occur. 5. **Evaluate Option D**: - The statement is: "The triangle and line have infinitely infinite number of points in common." - **Analysis**: This can happen if the line coincides with one of the sides of the triangle, leading to an infinite number of intersection points. - **Conclusion**: Option D can occur. 6. **Final Decision**: After analyzing all options, we find that: - Option A can occur. - Option B cannot occur. - Option C can occur. - Option D can occur. Thus, the answer to the question is **Option B**.
