Incidence Axioms I-1: For every point P and for every point Q not equal to P there exists a unique line l incident with P and Q. I-2: For every line l there exist at least two distinct points that are incident with l. I-3: There exist three distinct points with the property that no line is incident with all three of them.
Betweenness Axioms (1) B 1 If A*B*C, then A, B, and C are three distinct points all lying on the same line, and C*B*A. B-2: Given any two distinct points B and D, there exist points A, C, and E lying on BD such that A * B * D, B * C * D, and B * D * E. B-3: If A, B, and C are three distinct points lying on the same line, then one and only one of the points is between the other two.
4 P 3. 1: For any two points A and B: 4 Def: Let l be any line, A and B any points that do not lie on l. If A = B or if segment AB contains no point lying on l, we say A and Be are on the same sides of l. 4 Def: If A B and segment AB does intersect l, we say that A and B are opposite sides of l.
Betweenness Axioms (2) B-4: For every line l and for any three points A, B, and C not lying on l: 4 (i) If A and B are on the same side of l and B and C are on the same side of l, then A and C are on the same side of l. 4 (ii) If A and B are on opposite sides of l and B and C are on opposite sides of l, then A and C are on the same side of l. Corollary (iii) If A and B are on opposite sides of l and B and C are on the same side of l, then A and C are on opposite sides of l.
P-3. 2: Every line bounds exactly two half planes and these half planes have no point in common. P-3. 3: Given A*B*C and A*C*D. Then B*C*D and A*B*D. Corollary: Given A*B*C and B*C*D. Then A*B*D and A*C*D. P-3. 4: Line Separation Property: If C*A*B and l is the line through A, B, and C (B 1), then for every point P lying on l, P lies either on ray or on the opposite ray .
Pasch’s Theorem If A, B, C are distinct noncollinear points and l is any line intersecting AB in a point between A and B, then l also intersects either AC or BC. If C does not lie on l, then l does not interesect both AC and BC.
Def: Interior of an angle. Given an angle CAB, define a point D to be in the interior of CAB if D is on the same side of as B and if D is also on the same side of as C. P-3. 5: Given A*B*C. Then AC = AB BC and B is the only point common to segments AB and BC. P-3. 6: Given A*B*C. Then B is the only point common to rays and , and P-3. 7: Given an angle CAB and point D lying on line . Then D is in the interior of CAB iff B*D*C.
P 3. 8: If D is in the interior of CAB; then: a) so is every other point on ray except A; b) no point on the opposite ray to is in the interior of CAB; and c) if C*A*E, then B is in the interior of DAE. 4 Crossbar Thm: If is between and , then intersects segment BC.
4 A ray is between rays and if and are not opposite rays and D is interior to CAB. 4 The interior of a triangle is the intersection of the interiors of its three angles. 4 P-3. 9: (a) If a ray r emanating from an ex terior point of ABC intersects side AB in a point between A and B, then r also intersects side AC or side BC. (b) If a ray emanates from an interior point of ABC, then it intersects one of the sides, and if it does not pass through a vertex, it intersects only one side.
. Congruence Axioms
4 C-1: If A and B are distinct points and if A' is any point, then for each ray r emana ting from A' there is a unique point B' on r such that B' = A' and AB A'B'. 4 C-2: If AB CD and AB EF, then CD EF. Moreover, every segment is congruent to itself. 4 C-3: If A*B*C, A'*B'*C', AB A'B', and BC B'C', then AC A'C'. 4 C-4: Given any angle BAC (where by defini tion of "angle” AB is not opposite to AC ), and given any ray emanating from a point A’, then there is a unique ray on a given side of line A'B' such that B'A'C' = BAC.
4 C-5: If A B and A C, then B C. Moreover, every angle is con gruent to itself. 4 C-6: (SAS). If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent respec tively to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. 4 Cor. to SAS: Given ABC and segment DE AB, there is a unique point F on a given side of line such that ABC DEF.
Propositions 3. 10 12 4 P 3. 10: If in ABC we have AB AC, then B C. 4 P 3. 11: (Segment Substitution): If A*B*C, D*E*F, AB DE, and AC DF, then BC EF. 4 P 3. 12: Given AC DF, then for any point B between A and C, there is a unique point E between D and F such that AB DE.
Definition: 4 AB < CD (or CD > AB) means that there exists a point E between C and D such that AB CE.
