danjs · Answer

You can use a theorem for sure...

danjs · Answer

a corollary is a sorta sub-theorem, i think

danjs · Answer

what you think?

anonymous · Answer

i think its all of them except corollary

danjs · Answer

i just searched 'postulate', and got this first... http://www.riverview.wednet.edu/parade/teachers/mcclintict/Geometry-1/Geo-PostulatesTheorems-List-2011.pdf all the choices look good to me for a proof

anonymous · Answer

thank you for helping  me out

danjs · Answer

here is something http://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/theorems-lemmas.html

danjs · Answer

for the corollary, it is like a thing resulting from a major theorem...

danjs · Answer

actually, look at the definition for a conjecture

danjs · Answer

that can't be used in a formal proof, conjectures are posed statements, tha tare not proven yet

anonymous · Answer

thank you i got the answer right

danjs · Answer

what was it, all but conjecture?

anonymous · Answer

yea
