Postulate 1: Ruler Postulate
|
The points on a line can be paired with the real numbers in such a way that any two points can have coordinates 0 and 1. (p. 12)
|
|
Postulate 2: Segment Addition Postulate
|
If B is between A and C, then AB + BC = AC. (p. 12)
|
|
Postulate 3: Protractor Postulate
|
On line AB in a given plane, choose any point O between A and B. Consider ray OA and ray OB and all the rays that can be drawn from O on one side of AB. These rays can be paired with the real numbers from 0 to 180 in such a way that:
a. Ray OA is paired with 0, and ray OB with 180. b. If ray OP is paired with x, and ray OQ with y, then m<POQ = Ix - yI. (p. 18) |
|
Postulate 4: Angle Addition Postulate
|
If point B lies in the interior of <AOC, then m<AOB + m<BOC = m<AOC. If <AOC is a straight angle and B is any point not on line AC, then m<AOB + m<BOC = 180. (p. 18)
|
|
Postulate 5: Points and Dimension
|
A line contains at least two points; a plane contains at least three points not all in one line; space contains at least four points not all in one plane. (p. 23)
|
|
Postulate 6: Line
|
Through any two points there is exactly one line. (p. 23)
|
|
Postulate 7: Plane
|
Through any three points there is at least one plane, and through any three noncollinear points there is exactly one plane. (p. 23)
|
|
Postulate 8: Points & Plane
|
If two points are in a plane, then the line that contains the points is in that plane. (p. 23)
|
|
Postulate 9: Two Intersecting Planes
|
If two planes intersect, then their intersection is a line. (p. 23)
|
|
Postulate 10: Lines Cut by a Transversal #1
|
If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then corresponding angles are congruent. (p. 78)
|
|
Postulate 11: Lines cut by a Transversal #2
|
If two lines are cut by a transversal and corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel. (p. 83)
|
|
Postulate 12: SSS Postulate
|
If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent. (p. 122)
|
|
Postulate 13: SAS Postulate
|
If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. (p. 122)
|
|
Postulate 14: ASA Postulate
|
If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. (p. 123)
|
|
Postulate 15: AA Similarity Postulate
|
If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar. (p. 255)
|
|
Postulate 16: Arc Addition Postulate
|
The measure of the arc formed by two adjacent arcs is the sum of the measures of these two arcs. (p. 339)
|
|
Postulate 17: Square Area
|
The area of a square is the square of the length of a side (A = s^2) (p. 423)
|
|
Postulate 18: Area Congruence Postulate
|
If two figures are congruent, then the have the same area. (p. 423)
|
|
Postulate 19: Area Addition Postulate
|
The area of a region is the sum of the areas of its non-overlapping parts. (p. 424)
|
|
