Exploring Points, Lines, and Planes in Geometry

The video tutorial introduces the basic concepts of geometry, focusing on points, lines, and planes. It provides definitions and explanations for each, discussing how they are represented and used in geometry. The tutorial also covers how to model and name these geometric elements, followed by examples and practice questions to reinforce understanding.

What is the official definition of a point in geometry?
