Postulate 1.1 | Expansion Postulate |
Expansion Postulate | A line contains at least two points. A plane contains at least 3 noncollinear points. Space contains at least 4 noncoplanar points. |
Postulate 1.2 | Line Postulate |
Line Postulate | Any 2 points in space lie in exactly one line. |
Postulate 1.3 | Plane Postulate |
Plane Postulate | Three distinct noncollinear points lie in exactly one plane. |
Postulate 1.4 | Flat Plane Postulate |
Flat Plane Postulate | If 2 points lie in a plane, then the line containing these 2 points lies in the same plane. |
Postulate 1.5 | Plane Intersection Postulate |
Plane Intersection Postulate | If 2 planes intersect, then their intersection is exactly one line. |
Theorem 1.1 | If 2 distinct lines intersect, they intersect in one and only one point. |
Theorem 1.2 | A line and a point not on that line are contained in one and only one plane. |
