No, because postulates are assumptions. Some true, some not. Proving a Theorem requires facts in a logical order to do so.

What is the difference between proof and postulate?
A proof uses postulates and theorems to prove some statement.
What do you prove wit geometric proof?

Can postulates be used to solve theorems?
No. A postulate need not be true.
What do you use as reasons to support the steps of geometric proof?
the theorems and postulates used in the proof
What are the properties of geometry?

What are the congruence theorems or postulates?
They are theorems that specify the conditions that must be met for two triangles to be congruent.
Wwhich of the following are not congruence theorems or postulates?
the congruence theorems or postulates are: SAS AAS SSS ASA
What is always true in a logical system?
Theorems, corollaries, and postulates.
What would best describe how postulates differ from theorems?
Postulates are accepted as true without proof, and theorems have been proved true. Kudos on the correct spelling/punctuation/grammar, by the way.
What are the postulates and theorems?
Postulates are statements that are assumed to be true without proof. Theorums are statements that can be deduced and proved from definitions, postulates, and previously proved theorums.
Which are accepted without proof in a logical system Postulates Axioms Theorems or Corollaries?
Postulates and axioms are accepted without proof in a logical system. Theorems and corollaries require proof in a logical system.
Does a postulate need to be proved?
yes no. ( a second opinion) A postulate is assumed without proof. Postulate is a word used mostly in geometry. At one time, I think people believed that postulates were self-evident . In other systems, statements that are assumed without proof are called axioms. Although postulates are assumed when you make mathematical proofs, if you doing applied math. That is, you are trying to prove theorems about real-world systems, then you have to have strong evidence that your postulates are true in the system to which you plan to apply your theorems. You could then say that your postulates must be "proved" but this is a different sense of the word than is used in mathematical proving.
