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.)
The statements that are proved are called axioms.
Solve the following question using appropriate Euclid’s axiom:
Look at the figure. Show that length AH > sum of lengths of AB + BC + CD.

Solve the following question using appropriate Euclid’s axiom:
In the following figure, we have BX = `1/2` AB, BY = `1/2` BC and AB = BC. Show that BX = BY.

Solve the following question using appropriate Euclid’s axiom:
In the following figure, we have ∠1 = ∠2, ∠2 = ∠3. Show that ∠1 = ∠3.

Solve the following question using appropriate Euclid’s axiom:
In the following figure, we have AC = DC, CB = CE. Show that AB = DE.

In the following figure BM = BN, M is the mid-point of AB and N is the mid-point of BC. Show that AB = BC.

Read the following statements which are taken as axioms:
- If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then corresponding angles are not necessarily equal.
- If a transversal intersect two parallel lines, then alternate interior angles are equal.
Is this system of axioms consistent? Justify your answer.
