Coplanarity (source code)

= Coplanarity

= Coplanar
{synonym}

Points are coplanar when they belong to a common <plane>. For three vectors based at the origin of three-dimensional <Euclidean space>, this means their span has <dimension> at most two. Equivalently their <scalar triple product>, and hence the <determinant> with those vectors as columns, is zero. This includes dependent or zero vectors.
