Consider two ‘postulates’ given below:-
- Given any two distinct points A and B, there exists a third point C which is in between A and B.
- There exist at least three points that are not on the same line.
Do these postulates contain any undefined terms? Are these postulates consistent? Do they follow from Euclid’s postulates? Explain.

Given three distinct points in a plane, how many lines can be drawn by joining them?

Solve the following question using appropriate Euclid’s axiom:
In the following figure, we have X and Y are the mid-points of AC and BC and AX = CY. Show that AC = BC.

Read the following two statements which are taken as axioms:
- If two lines intersect each other, then the vertically opposite angles are not equal.
- If a ray stands on a line, then the sum of two adjacent angles so formed is equal to 180°.
Is this system of axioms consistent? Justify your answer.
