What is a basic assumption that is accepted without proof?
A postulate.
Can the sum of the angles of a triangle exceed 180 degrees?
In basic Euclidean geometry no, the sum of the angles always equals 180 degrees exactly. In non-Euclidean geometry it can exceed 180 degrees.
What do you mean by comparing a thing with a standard to see how many times as big it is?
This describes the basic idea of measurement.
What are the basic geometric ideas?
Basic Geometric Ideas: Geometry is the mathematics of space,two dimensional plane and three dimensional solid figures.Geometry is divided into pure Euclid elements of plane and solid as propunded by Greek mathematicians like Thales,Pythogoras and Euclid,while analytical/coordinate uses algebraic methods propounded by Rene Descartes.The non Euclidean methods devised in development of theory of relativity and atomic theory by Karl Gauss, Georg Riemann and Nikolai Lobachevsky.
What is hypothesis of difference?
The alternativehypothesis (Ha or H1) describes the population parameters that the sample data represent, if the predicted relationship exists. It is always the hypothesis of difference. That is as opposed to the null hypothesis (H0) that describes the population parameters that the sample data represent if the predicted relationship does not exist. See Basic Statistics of the Behavioral Sciences by Heiman.
Is a theorem a statement that describes a fundemental relationship between the basic terms of geometry?
no, its a postulate
What is a basic assumption that is accepted without proof?
A postulate.
What tools allowed the Greeks to exploit the five basic postulates of Euclidean geometry?
compass and straightedge
Can the sum of the angles of a triangle exceed 180 degrees?
In basic Euclidean geometry no, the sum of the angles always equals 180 degrees exactly. In non-Euclidean geometry it can exceed 180 degrees.
What is a postulate?
The verb "to postulate" means to assert a claim as true, with or without proof. Geometric "postulates" are basic axioms that are given or assumed in order to establish the framework of geometric relationships. An example is Postulate 1 which defines point, line, and distance as unique conditions.
What describes a basic belief or practice in Judaism?
If it's in the Torah, it's basic to Judaism.
What part of speech is basic?
The word basic is an adjective. It describes something which is essential or necessary.
What term describes the basic rules of right and wrong?
Morality is the term that describes the basic rules of right and wrong that guide human behavior and decision-making.
Which basic shape has 3 sides and 3 corners?
The basic shape with 3 sides and 3 corners is called a triangle. A triangle is a polygon with three straight sides and three angles. It is the simplest polygon in Euclidean geometry.
A document that describes the basic right of people?
The Bill of Rights
What term describes the basic building blocks of matter?
Atoms
What are the five basic postulates of euclidean?
The five basic postulates of Geometry, also referred to as Euclid's postulates are the following: 1.) A straight line segment can be drawn joining any two points. 2.) Any straight line segment can be extended indefinitely in a straight line. 3.) Given any straight line segment, a circle can be drawn having the segment as a radius and one endpoint as the center. 4.) All right angles are congruent. 5.) If two lines are drawn which intersect a third in such a way that the sum of the inner angles on one side is less than two right angles (or 180 degrees), then the two lines inevitably must intersect each other on that side if extended far enough. (This postulate is equivalent to what is known as the parallel postulate.)
