Study Notes
Point, Line, and Plane Postulates
- Two Point Postulate: Asserts that a unique line can be drawn through any pair of points.
- Line-Point Postulate: States that every line must consist of a minimum of two points.
- Line Intersection Postulate: Explains that the intersection of two lines results in exactly one point, confirming their meeting.
- Three Point Postulate: Indicates that through three non-collinear points, there exists one and only one plane, establishing their spatial relationship.
- Plane-Point Postulate: Defines that a plane is determined by at least three points that are not all located on the same line.
- Plane Line Postulate: Suggests that if two points exist within a plane, the line passing through those points also resides within that plane.
- Plane Intersection Postulate: Clarifies that the intersection of two planes creates a line, demonstrating how planes interact in space.
