Section 1-5 Postulates and Theorems Relating Points, Rays and Planes
by Nick Kramer
2
Goal Use symbols for Lines, Segments, Rays and Distances; Find Distances. Name the Angles and Find their Measurement. State and Use The Segments Addition Postulate and The Angle Addition Postulate. Recognize what you can conclude from a Diagram. Use the Postulates and Theorems relating Points, Lines and Planes.
3
Postulates A postulate is an assumed relationship that is seen in the world around us. They are not always reversible
4
Postulate 5 A line contain at least two (2) points; A Plane contains at least three points not all in one line; Space contains at least four points not all in one plane.
8
Postulate 6 Through any two points there is exactly one line.
12
Postulate 7 Through any three points three is at least one plane; through any three noncollinear points there is exactly one plane.
15
Postulate 8 If two points are in a plane, then the line that contains the points is in that plane.
17
Postulate 9 If two planes intersect, then their intersection is a line
19
Theorems A theorem is statements that can be shown to be true by a logical progression of preexisting definitions, postulates, and theorems.
20
Proving a Theorem Proving a theorem is the process of showing the validity of a theorem
21
Theorem 1-1 If two lines intersect, then they intersect in exactly one point.
23
Theorem 1-2 Through a line and a point not in the line there is exactly one plane.
24
Theorem 1-2
25
Theorem 1-3 If two lines intersect, then exactly one plane contains the lines.
26
Theorem 1-3
