  2. Playfair's axiom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playfair's_axiom

    If the sum of the interior angles α and β is less than 180°, the two straight lines, produced indefinitely, meet on that side. Euclid's parallel postulate states: If a line segment intersects two straight lines forming two interior angles on the same side that sum to less than two right angles , then the two lines, if extended indefinitely ...

  3. Transversal (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transversal_(geometry)

    Euclid's Proposition 27 states that if a transversal intersects two lines so that alternate interior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel. Euclid proves this by contradiction: If the lines are not parallel then they must intersect and a triangle is formed. Then one of the alternate angles is an exterior angle equal to the other ...

  4. Crossing number (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossing_number_(graph_theory)

    A variation of this concept, the rectilinear crossing number, requires all edges to be straight line segments, and may differ from the crossing number. In particular, the rectilinear crossing number of a complete graph is essentially the same as the minimum number of convex quadrilaterals determined by a set of n points in general position.

  5. Parallel postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_postulate

    If the sum of the interior angles α and β is less than 180°, the two straight lines, produced indefinitely, meet on that side. In geometry, the parallel postulate, also called Euclid's fifth postulate because it is the fifth postulate in Euclid's Elements, is a distinctive axiom in Euclidean geometry. It states that, in two-dimensional geometry:

  6. Arrangement of lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrangement_of_lines

    However, parallel (non-crossing) pairs of lines are less restricted in hyperbolic line arrangements than in the Euclidean plane: in particular, the relation of being parallel is an equivalence relation for Euclidean lines but not for hyperbolic lines. [51] The intersection graph of the lines in a hyperbolic arrangement can be an arbitrary ...

  7. Cross section (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_section_(geometry)

    In geology, the structure of the interior of a planet is often illustrated using a diagram of a cross-section of the planet that passes through the planet's center, as in the cross-section of Earth at right. Cross-sections are often used in anatomy to illustrate the inner structure of an organ, as shown at the left.
