intersection point

Where lines cross

An intersection point is where two or more lines, curves, or surfaces cross each other.

In geometry, it's the exact location where paths meet: The intersection point of the two lines lies at coordinates (3, 5).

The term appears in mathematics, engineering, and navigation, anywhere precise crossing locations matter.
