1-5Postulates and Theorems Relating Points, Lines and Planes
Postulate • A line contains at least two points, a plane contains at least 3 points not all in one line; space contains at least four points not all in one plane.
Postulate • Through any two points there is exactly one line.
Postulate • Through any 3 points there is at least one plane, and through any three noncollinear points there is EXACTLY one plane.
Postulate • If two points are in a plane, then the line that contains the points is in the plane.
Postulate • If two planes intersect, then their intersection is a line.
A line contains at least two points, a plane contains at least 3 points not all in one line; space contains at least for points not all in one plane. • Through any two points there is exactly one line. • Through any 3 points there is at least one plane, and through any three noncollinear points there is EXACTLY one plane. • If two points are in a plane, then the line that contains the points is in the plane. • If two planes intersect, then their intersection is a line.
What is a theorem? • Important statements that have been PROVEN TRUE. From previous information
Theorem • If 2 lines intersect, then they intersect in exactly one point.
Theorem • Through a line and a point not in the line there is exactly one plane.
Theorem • If 2 lines intersect, then exactly one plane contains the lines.
