This collection of solved problems covers elementary and intermediate calculus, and much of advanced calculus. We have aimed at presenting the broadest range of problems that you are likely to encounter—the old chestnuts, all the current standard types, and some not so standard. Each chapter begins with very elementary problems.

Practice 1: Find parametric equations for the lines through the point P = (3,–1) that are (a) parallel to the vector A = 〈 2, –4 〉 , and (b) parallel to the vector B = 〈 1, 5 〉 . Then graph the two lines. The parametric pattern works for lines in three dimensions.
There exist at least three distinct noncollinear points. Postulate 3 (The Unique Line Postulate). Given any two distinct points, there is a unique line that contains both of them.
Let x, y and z be distinct points of S such that z 62xy. Then f x; y; z g is a noncollinear set. Proof. Suppose that L is a line containing the given three points. Since x and y are distinct, by (I-2) we know that L = xy. By our assumption on L it follows that z 2 L; however, this contradicts the hypothesis z 62xy.
Examples 1 Identifying Collinear Points 2 Naming a Plane 3 Finding the Intersections of Two Planes 4 Using Postulate 1-4 Math Background The formal study of geometry requires simple ideas and statements that can be accepted as true without proof. The undefined terms point, line, and plane provide the simple ideas. Basic postulates about points,
I understand that if I take one point or any number of collinear points, then I can draw infinite planes just by rotating around the line that connects these points, but why do we need 3 non collinear points to define a plane, why not more?
