Question

Abigail wrote the statements shown in the chart below:


Statement Description
1 If two lines intersect, then exactly one plane contains both lines.
2 If a point lies outside a line, then exactly one plane contains both the line and the point.

Which option best classifies Abigail's statements?
Statement 1 and Statement 2 are postulates because they are true facts.
Statement 1 and Statement 2 are theorems because they can be proved with the help of appropriate postulates.
Statement 1 is a theorem because it can be proved, and Statement 2 is a postulate because it is a true fact.

Answer 1

@DanJS @Hero @SithsAndGiggles @phi

Answer 2

yeah those 2 statements are good,

a plane need at least 3 points
a line needs at least 2

Answer 3

I know its not a because thats wrong (I am ppostiive)

Answer 4

statement 2 is the hypotenus leg theorem right?

Answer 5

idk the name, but it is tru

3 points that arent all colinear can determine a plane.

one point, and one line, can manage those , take any couple points on the line, and the other outsiode,

Answer 6

so whats the asnwer....

Answer 7

IS IT D? srry didnt mean to put caps on

Answer 8

i would say both are theorem, since they can be proven with the postulates/axiums

Answer 9

okay! can you help with another?

Answer 10

although both are kinda easy tpo see,

Answer 11

but a ik isnt rihgt...
