The physics involved in trick shots include the angle of which a player is standing at, the direction they are shooting at, and the way they shoot. If a person puts enough pressure into a hit, the ball will roll and bounce in a particular spot and go towards a particular hole. There is seriously a Donald Duck video that talks about physics and covers the physics of some tricks.
A faulty billiards shot is called a "miscue"
It isn't. Geometry is only loosely involved with billiards. Physics has significantly more impact. Geometry can be used to determine single rail bank shots of the simplest types, and can be used to determine ball movement after impact for simple shots. However, rotational momentum, slide, english, rail induced english, and center of mass calculations all impact a shot such that simple geometry is not sufficent for anything other than the simplest shots to determine what will occur.
An anchor shot is a billiards shot made with the object balls in an anchor space.

Trick Shot - comics - was created in 1987.
there are no points in a billiards game. Do you by any chance reffer to pocketing two red balls at the same shot in a SNOOKER game? In that case you get two points and an extra shot.
For pocket billiards, 9 ball is often won in 1 shot. Both 8 ball and 9 ball can be won on the break,
This is typically a billiards term meaning, "a shot in billiards in which the cue ball strikes each of two object ball".
In bIlliards there is no point limit. The game is either timed (Pre-determined) or reaching a agreed point value. Points are allocated: Object ball - Pot or in-off (3) Opponnet ball - (2) Canon - (2) Hope this helps
It is singular to refer to the game. However, a shot may be called a billiard and in that case, billiards can refer to multiple shots and would be plural.

There is no such thing as a billiards bounce. A person that does not know the proper terms might call a jump shot, a scoop shot, or a carom a "bounce" but this in incorrect. The term bounce is not a billiards term, but there are "tricks" where the word bounce can be used - one such is when racking, placing all the balls except the 8 ball in the rack, and then dropping the 8 ball on the rail to make it "bounce" into the center of the rack.
