उत्तर
Given OX = `1/2` XY
⇒ 2OX = XY ...(i)
PX = `1/2` XZ
⇒ 2PX = XZ ...(ii)
And OX = PX ...(iii)
According to Euclid’s axiom, things which are double of the same things are equal to one another.
On multiplying equation (iii) by 2, we get
2OX = 2PX
XY = XZ ...[From equations (i) and (ii)]

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°.
