do three non-intersecting lines make a plane?

how we make plane by 3 non-intersecting lines?

No, not necessarily. Imagine one line lying on the ground
and another line, several inches away, extending from the
ground up into the sky. Not on the same plane.

If the lines are parallel, they can identify a plane if they
are "side by side." However, if one of them is "above"
or "below" the others, again, no plane.

If you look at the lines from the "side" and the two further
lines are completely in the "shadow" of the nearer line,
you have a plane.
