Why do you think are there attempts to prove Euclid’s Fifth Postulate?
__________________________________________________________
B. From the figure below, determine what is being asked. V. Use the statement: All prime numbers are odd
a. Rewrite in if-then form
b. Determine the hypothesis and conclusion
c. Is this a true statement?
A. Use the statement: I will graduate when I pass Modern Geometry VII. Suppose ∆ ABC is a right isosceles triangle with right angle at C. We can choose our unit of length
so that the legs have length 1. The theorem then says that the length of the hypotenuse is irrational.
a. Rewrite in if-then form
Prove this using the RAA Proof
b. Determine the hypothesis and conclusion
From the statement above, write the statements based on the following, then state is it’s a
true statement.

4. Contrapositive Statement
VII. From the Logic Rules 1 – 5 of Week 6, choose explain using your own words and cite some
examples.
IX. Make your own illustration based on the given instructions below. You may use the back of the
Rule 0. _________________________________________________________ paper for the drawing.
Rule 1. _________________________________________________________ Consider a set {A, B, C, D} of four letters, called “points.”
Rule 2. _________________________________________________________ The “lines” are those subsets consisting of two letters. Then {A, D} and {B, C} are parallel lines.
Rule 3. _________________________________________________________ For the line {A, B} and the point C outside {A, B}, there is a unique line {C, D} passing through C and
Rule 4. _________________________________________________________ parallel to {A, B}.
Rule 5. _________________________________________________________
I. Axiom 4. Given an angle ∠AOB and a ray r (O’, A’), where the rays r (O, A), r (O, B)
are not opposite. There exists a unique ray r (O’, B’) on each side of the line O’A’ such
that ∠A’O’B’ ≅ ∠AOB. Moreover, if r (O’, A’) = r (O, A) and the side of OA is
the half-plane H (OA, B), then r (O, B’) = r(O, B). If r (O’, A’) = r (O, B) and the side of
OB is the half-plane H (OB, A), then r (O, B’) = r(O, A).
Outline of the proof. Let be given. Let D be a point such that A-CD, i.e. is an exterior
angle of
