Consider the following axiomatic system: 1. Each point is contained by precisely two lines. 2. Each line is a set of four points. 3. Two distinct lines that intersect do so in exactly one point.
True or false? There exists a model with no parallel lines.

Consider an axiomatic system that consists of elements in a set S and a set P of pairings of elements (a, b) that satisfy the following axioms: A1 If (a, b) is in P, then (b, a) is not in P. A2 If (a, b) is in P and (b, c) is in P, then (a, c) is in P. Given two models of the system, answer the questions below. M1: S= {1, 2, 3, 4}, P= {(1, 2), (2,...

Consider two lines y = m1x + b1 and y = m2x + b2. To solve for the intersection point (x ∗ , y∗ ) of these lines (assuming they aren’t parallel) we have m1x ∗ + b1 = m2x ∗ + b2 (m1 − m2) x ∗ = b2 − b1 x ∗ = b2 − b1 m1 − m2 and thus y ∗ = m1x ∗ + b1.

1.      This exercise asks you to negate various results that are equivalent to the Euclidean parallel postulate. (a)   Alternate Postulate 5.1. Given a line and a point not on the line, exactly one line can be drawn through the given point and parallel to the given line. (b)   Alternate Postulate 5.2. If two parallel lines are cut but a transversal, then the alternate interior angles are equal, each exterior angle is equal to the opposite interior angle, and sum of...
