Firstly, which looks like a definition to you? @ojfrias

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just did

Atsie (atsie):

Alright, so which looks like a definition to you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't get it at all

Atsie (atsie):

Well, a theorem is a theoretical proposition, statement, or formula forming something to be proved from other formula. Its also a statement that has been proven on the basis of previously understood statements. Do you know yourself what a postulate is? I'm starting by identifying definitions because if you don't understand it at all, then that's the basic way to start.

Atsie (atsie):

@ojfrias You there? You gotta respond and communicate so I can further help you.

OpenStudy (aihberkhan):

Unfortunately, @ojfrias has gone online.. @Ojfrias. If you truly want help it would be great to stay online and communicate further with the person trying to help you as greatly as possible.

Okay, maybe you had gone offline. So I'll just write all this out and you can digest the info later on your own time. A postulate is basically a statement accepted as truth in relation to an argument of some sort. Statement one says that if two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary angles. This example even shows it... http://www.mathopenref.com/linearpair.html A theorem is a true statement that can be proven...and as with the link up above, it definitely is a true statement. But what do we know about statement two? Postulate? definition? You of course understand what both mean...so what on earth could possibly fit? The whole point of this question is for you to learn to do analytical thinking in mathematical and geometric ways.

I'm afraid your OpenStudy helpers missed the fact that you're working on a test. The illustration you've shared with us contains the words "submit" and "test" as well as the number of points you'd earn. Asking for or giving help on a test is absolutely forbidden on OpenStudy. Please contact us again when you're working on non-credit bearing homework.

Atsie (atsie):

Woops! I totally missed that fact... sorry bout that.
