Postulates and axioms.
Corollaries,TheoremsCorollaries, Theorems
The statements that require proof in a logical system are theorems and corollaries.
Axioms, or postulates, are accepted as true or given, and need not be proved.
a branch of mathematics in which theorems on geometry are proved through logical reasoning
You start out with things that you know and use them to make logical arguments about what you want to prove. The things you know may be axioms, or may be things you already proved and can use. The practice of doing Geometry proofs inspires logical thinking, organization, and reasoning based on facts. Each statement must be supported with a valid reason, which could be a given fact, definitions, postulates, or theorems.
Postulates and axioms are accepted without proof in a logical system. Theorems and corollaries require proof in a logical system.

No, theorems cannot be accepted until proven.
No, because postulates are assumptions. Some true, some not. Proving a Theorem requires facts in a logical order to do so.
Axioms, or postulates, are accepted as true or given, and need not be proved.
The axiomatic structure of geometry, as initiated by Euclid and then developed by other mathematicians starts of with 8 axioms or postulates which are self-evident truths". Chains of logical reasoning can be used to prove theorems which are then accepted as additional truths, and so on. Geometry does not have laws, as such.
There is no particular history. Postulates are simply statements which may or may not be true. Usually the person who proposes the postulate believes that it is true but cannot prove it - it is put forward in the hope that someone will be able to prove that it is true. Early postulates may have been that the God X is responsible for the phenomenon Y.
