Question 522850: If U is between R and N on the same line, what terms describe the relationship the three points must have?
noncollinear,
betweenness of points,
collinear,
or coplanar?
There could be more then 1 answer... but im pretty sure one of the answers is collinear, correct?

Correct on collinear.
Also coplanar because
any 3 points lie in the same plane.

--------------------
colinear is the best answer. Noncolinear is wrong.

They're also coplanar, but the line is in an infinite # of planes so that's an incomplete description.
