Solve the following question using appropriate Euclid’s axiom:
In the following figure, we have AC = DC, CB = CE. Show that AB = DE.
उत्तर
Given, AC = DC ...(i)
And C6 = CE ...(ii)
According to Euclid’s axiom, if equals are added to equals, then wholes are also equal.
So, on adding equation (i) and (ii), we get
AC + CB = DC + CE
⇒ AB = DE

Consider two ‘postulates’ given below:-
- Given any two distinct points A and B, there exists a third point C which is in between A and B.
- There exist at least three points that are not on the same line.
Do these postulates contain any undefined terms? Are these postulates consistent? Do they follow from Euclid’s postulates? Explain.
If a point C lies between two points A and B such that AC = BC, then prove that AC = `1/2` AB. Explain by drawing the figure.
In the following figure, if AC = BD, then prove that AB = CD.
