Give a definition of the following term. Are there other terms that need to be defined first? What are they, and how might you define them?
line segment
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.
If a point C lies between two points A and B such that AC = BC, point C is called a mid-point of line segment AB. Prove that every line segment has one and only one mid-point.
In how many points two distinct lines can intersect?
How many planes can be made to pass through two points?
In Ancient India, Altars with combination of shapes like rectangles, triangles and trapeziums were used for ______.
“For every line l and for every point P not lying on a given line l, there exists a unique line m passing through P and parallel to l ” is known as Playfair’s axiom.
Solve the following question using appropriate Euclid’s axiom:
Look at the figure. Show that length AH > sum of lengths of AB + BC + CD.

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

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.
