Postulate 2.3
A line contains at least 2 points
Postulate 2.4
A plane contains at least three non-collinear points
Postulate 2.5
If 2 points lie in a plane, then their intersection is exactly one point

Addition property of Equality
If a=b, then a+c=b+c
Subtraction property of Equality
if a = b, the a-c = b - c
Multiplication Property of Equation
a=b, then a x c = b x c
Division Property of Equality
if a = b and c ≠ 0, then a/c = b/c
Reflexive property of Equality
a=a
Symmetric Property of Equality
if a= b and b=a
Transitive Property of Equality
if a = b and b = c, the n a = c
Substitution Property of Equality
if a = b, then a may be replaced by b in any equation or expression
Distributive Property
a (b+c) = ab =ac
Angle Addition Postulate
R is in the interior of <PQS if and only if m<PQR + m<RQS = m<PQS
Supplement Theorem
if two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary angles.
Ex: if <1 and <2 form a linear pair, then m<1+ m<2 = 180
Complement Theorem
if the non-common sides of two adjacent angles form a right angle, then the angles are complementary angles.
Ex: if line GF is perpendicular to line GH, the m<3 + m<4 = 90
Congruent supplement theorem
Angles supplemnt to the same angle or congruent angles are congruent
Congruent compliments theorem
angles compliment to the same angle or to congruent angles are congruent
vertical angle theorem
if two angles are vertical angles, then they are congruent
Theorem 2.9
Perpendicular lines intersect to form four right angles
Theorem 2.10
all right angles are congruent
Theorem 2.11
Perpendicular lines form congruent adjacent angles
Theorem 2.12
If two angles are congruent and Supplementary, then each angle is a right angle
Theorem 2.13
If two congruent angles form a linear pair, then they are right angles
