| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Ruler Postulate | The points on a line can be matched one to one with real numbers. The real number that corresponds to a point is the coordinate of the point. The distance between points A and B, written as AB, is the absolute value of the difference of the coordinates of A and B |
| Segment Addition Postulate | If B is between A and C, then AB + BC = AC. If AB + BC = AC, then B is between A and C |
| Protractor Postulate | Consider ray OB and a point A on one side of line OB. The rays of the form ray OA can be matched one to one with the real numbers from 0 to 180. |
| Angle Addition Postulate | If P is in the interior of angle RST, then the measure of angle RST is equal to the sum of the measures of angle RSP and angle PST |
