1. To illustrate and
understand
postulates about
lines and planes

special pairs of
angles to find angle
measurements
Assignment:

29, 45, 46, 47
• P. 128-131: 8-16

Objective 1
You will be able to
illustrate and
understand
postulates about
lines and planes
Exercise 1
What is the length of SM ?
S
A
6 cm
20 cm
M
Exercise 1
You basically used the Segment Addition
Postulate to get the length of the segment,
where 𝑆𝐴 + 𝐴𝑀 = 𝑆𝑀.
S
A
26 cm

Postulates
As you build a
deductive system
like geometry, you
demonstrate that
certain statements
are logical
consequences of
other previously
accepted or proven
statements.
Postulates
This chain of logical
reasoning must
begin somewhere,
so every deductive
system must contain
some statements
that are never
proved. In
geometry, these are
called postulates.
Postulates and Theorems
Postulates are
statements in
geometry that are so
basic, they are
assumed to be true
without proof.
Sometimes called axioms
Theorems are
statements that were
once conjectures but
have since been
proven to be true
based on postulates,
definitions,
properties, or
previously proven
conjectures.
Eight Window Foldable
1. Fold blank piece of
paper in half
length-wise.
2. While it’s still
folded, fold in half
in the opposite
direction.
Eight Window Foldable
3. Now in the same
direction, fold the
paper in half two more
times.
4. Unfold the paper and
cut along the fold
lines on the right side
of the paper to create
eight windows.
Postulates Are Easy!
On the first strip, write
“Postulate.” Under
that strip write the
definition of
postulate.
Postulates Are Easy!
The other seven
windows are for
specific postulates.
The outside strip should
have a picture that
illustrates the
postulate that
appears under the
strip.
Postulates Are Easy!
For example, under the second strip write:
Through any two points there exists
exactly one line.
On the front of the second strip, draw an
illustration:
B

Repeat Times Seven!
Exercise 2
State the postulate illustrated by the
diagram.
Exercise 3
How does the
diagram shown
illustrate one or
more
postulates?
Interpreting Diagrams
When you interpret a
diagram, you can
assume only
information about
size or measure if it
is marked.

Exercise 4
Sketch and carefully label a diagram with
plane A containing noncollinear points R,
O, and W, and plane B containing
noncollinear points N, W, and R.
Perpendicular Figures
A line is
perpendicular to a
plane if and only if
the line intersects
the plane in a point
and is perpendicular
to every line in the
plane that intersects
it at that point.
Exercise 5
Which of the following
cannot be assumed
from the diagram?
1. A, B, and F are
collinear.
2. E, B, and D are
collinear.
3. 𝐴𝐵 ⊥ plane 𝑆
Exercise 5
Which of the following
cannot be assumed
from the diagram?
4. 𝐶𝐷 ⊥ plane 𝑇
5. 𝐴𝐹 intersects 𝐵𝐶
at point 𝐵.
Objective 2
You will be able to use properties of special pairs
of angles to find angle measurements
Exercise 6a

linear pairs of
angles.
2. Identify all
pairs of vertical
angles.

Linear Pair Postulate
If two angles form a linear pair, then they are
supplementary.
Do we have to prove this?
Vertical Angle Congruence Theorem
Vertical angles are congruent.
