Mathematical system

Cards (19)

  • Underfined terms in geometry are terms which cannot be precisely defined and uses description
  • Defined terms have a formal definition used to define more terms
  • Axioms/Postulates statement which is accepted as true without proof used in proving some mathematical statement
  • Theorems is a statement that can be proven it can be used in proving other statements
  • Undefined terms- plane, point, line
  • Defined terms- collinear points, coplanar point, subset of a line
  • Axioms/Postulate- axioms, postulate
  • Theorems -theorems
  • Point a position in space it has only location but no dimension named using "Capital Letter"
  • Line continues arrangement of infinitely points extends infinitely is opposite direction and is named by a single lower case letter or two points on a line
  • Arrowheads symbolizes infinity
  • Plane a flat surface that extends infinitely along it's length and width named by a single script capital letter or by three noncollinear points
  • Collinear points are points that lie on the same line
  • Non-collinear points are points that do not lie on the same line
  • Coplanar points are points that lie in the same plane
  • Non-coplanar points are points that do not lie in the same plane
  • Line segment part of a line that consist two endpoints
  • Ray part of a line with one endpoint and is extending in only one direction
  • Opposite rays are rays with common endpoint but extending in opposite directions
