| 1. The extremities of a line are points. | 2. A super fishes (superficies)—an acute angle. | 3. A Polly gone (polygon). |

| 4. A problem proposes something to be done, such as theconstruction of a figure | 5. A postulate is a problem so simple that it is unnecessary topoint out the method of performing it. | 6. An axiom is a theorem the truth of which is soapparent as to be instantly admitted. |
