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.
Why is Axiom 5, in the list of Euclid’s axioms, considered a ‘universal truth’? (Note that the question is not about the fifth postulate.)

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.
