The set of postulates, known as the "postulates of geometry," were developed by the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid around 300 BCE. In his work "Elements," Euclid outlined five fundamental postulates that serve as the foundation for Euclidean geometry. These postulates include the concepts of straight lines, circles, and the idea that parallel lines never meet. Euclid's postulates have had a lasting impact on mathematics and geometry throughout history.
The five postulates of Euclidean geometry, as outlined by Euclid, are: A straight line can be drawn between any two points. A finite straight line can be extended indefinitely in either direction. A circle can be drawn with any center and radius. All right angles are congruent to one another. If two lines are drawn such that a third line intersects them, and the sum of the interior angles on one side is less than two right angles, then the two lines will meet on that side when extended. These postulates form the foundation of Euclidean geometry.
One main characteristic of non-Euclidean geometry is hyperbolic geometry. The other is elliptic geometry. Non-Euclidean geometry is still closely related to Euclidean geometry.
The axioms are not postulates.
False
Answer The two commonly mentioned non-Euclidean geometries are hyperbolic geometry and elliptic geometry. If one takes "non-Euclidean geometry" to mean a geometry satisfying all of Euclid's postulates but the parallel postulate, these are the two possible geometries.

No. Postulates are the foundations of geometry. If you said they were wrong then it would be saying that Euclidean geometry is wrong. It is like if you asked how do we know that English is right. It is how the English language works. So no postulates do not need to be proven.

The ruler placement postulate is the third postulate in a set of principles (postulates, axioms) adapted for use in high schools concerning plane geometry (Euclidean Geometry).
