@jim_thompson5910 Compare a postulate and a theorem: (Points : 2) A postulate and a theorem are both understood as true without proof. A theorem is understood as true without proof, while a postulate must be proven. A postulate is understood as true without proof, while a theorem must be proven. Both must be proven.

is it B?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Hint: one needs proof, the other is assumed as true

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

another word for postulate is axiom

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its A!

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

and think of theorems as theories do these need proof or can you assume it is always true (without proof)?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

how can it be A if one doesn't need proof (and it's assumed to be true)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

BOTH MUST BE PROVEN?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

no, one is assumed to be true, so that doesn't need to be proven

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

its like basic facts (like a line is made up of two points) that don't need to be proven
