Point, Line, and Plane Postulates

  • A postulate (also called an axiom) is a statement that is assumed to be true. It is accepted as fact without formal proof.
  • Postulates:
    • Through any two points, there is exactly one line
    • Through any three points not on the same line, there is exactly one plane
    • A line contains at least two points
    • A plane contains at least three points not on the same line
    • If two points lie in a plane, then the entire line containing those two points lies in that plane
    • If two lines intersect, then they intersect in exactly one point
    • If two planes intersect, then their intersection is a line
