MATHEMATICAL SYSTEM: UNDEFINED AND DEFINED TERMS

Name of the Learner: ___________________________________ Section: ______________


School: _________________________________________________ Date: _________________

I. Learning Competency:

• describes a mathematical system. (M8GE - IIIa – 1)


• illustrates the need for an axiomatic structure of a mathematical system
in general, and in Geometry in particular: (a) defined terms; (b)
undefined terms; (c) postulates; and (d) theorems. (M8GE - IIIa - c – 1)

II. Key Concepts

This activity sheet focused on describing mathematical system and


illustration for an axiomatic structure of a mathematical system. Below are
the activities with regard to this topic. Read the directions of every activity
and answer what is asked.

III. Activity

Day 1. Describing Mathematical System

Geometry has a big contribution in our society. It is the beginning of


numerous easy and complicated designs of buildings, infrastructures, houses,
churches, and many others. This implies that we apply to the modern world
what Euclidian theories in Geometry have been given. Euclid of Alexandria
(lived c. 300 BCE) was known as the “Father of Geometry”. He systematized
ancient Greek and Near Eastern mathematics and geometry. The
mathematical system known as Euclidian Geometry attributed to Euclid,
was described in his textbook the “Elements” as a structure formed from one
or more sets of undefined objects, various concepts which may or may not be
defined, and a set of axioms relating these objects and concepts.

To have a better understanding regarding the parts of mathematical
system let us discuss them one by one.
Undefined terms are terms that do not require a definition but can be
described. These terms are used as a base to define other terms, hence, these
are the building blocks of other mathematical terms, such as definitions,
axioms, and theorems. Examples of undefined terms are point, line and plane.
Defined Terms are the terms of mathematical system that can be defined
using undefined terms. Examples of defined terms are angle, line segment,
and circle. Term or phrase which makes use of the undefined terms and
previously defined terms and common words.
Axioms and Postulates are the statements assumed to be true and no need
for further proof. These are observed facts and are already accepted as true
even without proof. These are examples of axioms. Furthermore, postulates
are assumptions specific to Geometry while axioms are generally statements
used throughout mathematics. Postulates or axioms are statements that may
be used to justify the statements in a proof. The axioms often used in Algebra
and Geometry are the Axioms for Real Numbers which are found at the table
below.

Theorems are statements accepted after they are proven true deductively. The
axiomatic structure of a mathematical system follows a sequence, starting
with a set of undefined terms which are bases to define terms, then axioms
that are clearly stated, and from these a theorem is derived through reasoning.
Theorems are derived from the set of axioms in an axiomatic mathematical
system. Below is the flow on how to arrive to the theorems.

Oftentimes, we failed to recognize that we are dealing with the
mathematical system in our lives. Here are some examples that show how it
is applied in a real-life setting:

1. When I buy 2 pieces of shirt for 𝑃ℎ𝑝 250, 1 piece of pants for 𝑃ℎ𝑝 500 and a
pair of shoes for 𝑃ℎ𝑝 1000, how much money will I need to pay to the
cashier? I have in my mind that I may add first the amount for shirt and
pants, then the total will be added to the amount for the pair of shoes or
add first the amount for shoes and pants then the sum will be added to the
amount of shirt. The result is just the same. This illustrates associative
axiom.

2. Justin and Allan wanted to buy a gift for their mother during her birthday.
Justin has 𝑃ℎ𝑝 150 savings and Allan has 𝑃ℎ𝑝 80. If they double the
amount, it would already be enough for the gift they planned to buy. How
much money would they need to have altogether for them to be able to buy
a gift for their mother?
2(150 + 80) = 2(150) + 2(80) = 300 + 160 = 460

If we add their savings altogether and multiply by 2, notice that the


answer is the same. This illustrates the Distributive Axiom.

Independent Practice: Day 1

A. “Complete Me”
Directions: Fill in the blank using the correct terms inside the box below.

Mathematical System

1._______________________ are terms that do not have concrete definition


but can be described. On the other hand, 2. _______________________
require definition. There are statements assumed to be true even without
proof which we called as axioms or postulates. However, the two has
distinction in such a way that 3. _______________________ are often used in
Geometry while the 4. _______________________ are used in all areas of
Mathematics. When the statement shows evidences or proven to be true,
we call it as 5. _______________________.

B. “Figure It Out”
Directions: Determine the axiom that justifies each of the following
statements. Write your answer on the space provided.

Day 2. Axiomatic System

An axiomatic system is a logical system which possesses an explicitly


stated set of axioms from which theorems can be derived.

From the definition, you could say that axiomatic system consists of
some undefined terms (also called the primitive terms), defined terms, list
of axioms or postulates concerning the undefined terms, a system of logic
(or proofs) to be used in deducing new statements called theorems.

Axiomatic system has three properties.

1. Consistency. An axiomatic system is said to be consistent if there are no


axiom or theorem that contradict each other. This means that it is impossible
to derive both a statement and its negation from the axiom set of system.
Example: Axiom statement: There exist two lines that are parallel. Negation:
No two lines are parallel. Notice that the negation is not an axiom nor a
theorem.
The system where a statement and its negation are both true is said to
be inconsistent.

2. Independence. In an axiomatic system, an axiom or postulate is said to


be independent if it is not a theorem that follows the other axioms. It is not a
theorem that can be derived or cannot be proven true using other axioms in
the system.
For instance, you have four different axioms. If you can make a model
showing that one axiom is independent of the other, that is, you cannot use
the other three axioms to prove such axiom, then the axiom is independent.
An example to this is Euclid’s fifth postulate. Many people tried to prove
this axiom using the other four postulates but either failed or used faulty
reasoning. This problem led to the development of other geometries where the
fifth theorem of Euclid was shown to be independent of the other postulates.
Independence is not a necessary requirement for an axiomatic system.

3. Completeness. An axiomatic system is complete if for every statement,


either itself or its negation, is derivable in that system. In other words, every
statement is capable of being proven true or false.

ephrain.paylangco@deped.gov.ph
Independent Practice: Day 2 “True or False”
Directions: Tell whether the following statement is true or false.
__________ 1. An axiomatic system consists of undefined terms, defined terms,
axioms, and theorems.
__________ 2. Theorems are proved using undefined terms, defined terms,
axioms, a logical system, and/or previous theorems.
__________ 3. A model of an axiomatic system is obtained by assigning meaning
to the undefined terms of the axiomatic system in such a way
that the axioms are true statements about the assigned concepts.
__________ 4. Independence and completeness are necessary requirements of
an axiomatic system.
__________ 5. In our daily lives, we use true statements based on facts as our
reasons in order to arrive at a conclusion. In this manner, we are
applying axiomatic system.

Day 3. Mathematical System (Undefined Terms)

Point, line and plane are the undefined terms because they can only
describe or illustrated.

POINT

Day 4. Mathematical System (Defined Terms)

Parallel lines are lines in a plane that do not intersect. It denoted a


symbol ‖.

a b a‖b

Perpendicular lines are two lines that intersect and form right angles. It
denoted a symbol ⊥.

Here, AB is perpendicular to XY
because AB and XY intersect each
other at 90°.

Midpoint is a point on a line segment that divides it into two equal parts.
The halfway point of a line segment.

Angle is the figure formed by two rays with a common point.

Right angle is an angle whose measure is 900. The square corner is used
to mark a right angle.

Vertical Angles are two angles in which the sides of one angle are
opposite rays to the sides of the other angles.

In the diagram at the left, lines m and n


are straight:
∠1 and ∠2 are vertical angles.
∠3 and ∠4 are vertical angles.
∠1 and ∠3 are NOT vertical angles

Adjacent Angles. If two angles, like a and b, have a common vertex and a
common side, then they are called adjacent angles.

Ephrain C. Paylangco
Mabuhay National High School
DepEd Division of Agusan del Sur
ephrain.paylangco@deped.gov.ph
Linear Pair. If two adjacent angles, like a and b, have their noncommon
sides forming a straight angle or opposite rays then they are called
linear pair.

Supplementary Angles. If the sum of the measures of two angles is 180°,


then they are said to be supplementary angles.

Example 2:

A. The m∠𝑎 = 1200 and m∠𝑏 = 600


and m∠𝑎 + m∠𝑏 = 1800,
then ∠𝑎 and ∠𝑏 are supplementary angles.

B. The m∠1 = 350 and m∠2 = 1450


and m∠1 + m∠2 = 1800,
then ∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary angles.

Complementary Angles. If the sum of the measures of two angles is 90°,


then they are said to be complementary angles.

Angle Bisector. is a ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles.

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET NO. 2


MATHEMATICAL SYSTEM: POSTULATES, AXIOMS AND THEOREMS

Name of the Learner: ___________________________________ Section: ______________


School: _________________________________________________ Date: _________________

I. Learning Competency:

• illustrates the need for an axiomatic structure of a mathematical system


in general, and in Geometry in particular: (a) defined terms; (b) undefined
terms; (c) postulates; and (d) theorems. (M8GE - IIIa - c – 1)

II. Key Concepts

This activity sheet focused on illustrating an axiomatic structure of a


mathematical system particularly in postulates, axioms and theorems.
Below are the activities with regard to this topic. Read the directions of
every activity and answer what is asked.

III. Activity

Day 1-2. Postulates

Postulates are statements that are assumed to be true without proof.

The Line Postulate. For every two points there is exactly one line that
contains both points.

Plane Postulate. Any three points lie in at least one plane. Any three
noncollinear points lie in exactly one plane. Any three points are
always coplanar. Noncollinear points 𝑋, 𝑌, 𝑍 lie on plane M only.

The Flat-Plane Postulate. If two points of a line lie in a plane, then the line
lies in the same plane. Points 𝑋 and Z lie in plane M. Therefore, line
̅̅̅̅
𝑋𝑍 also lie on plane M. This postulate describes the flatness of the
plane.

ephrain.paylangco@deped.gov.ph
Example 2: Determine whether each statement is always, sometimes, or
never true.
A. Points E, F, and G are non-coplanar points.
B. Points C and D are in plane R. Any points collinear with C and D is in
plane R.
C. If points L, U, and V lie on plane N, then they are collinear.

Solution:
A. Never. Plane Postulate states that any three points lie in at least one
plane thus, any three points are always coplanar.
B. Always. Flat Plane Postulate states if two points lie in a plane, then the
entire line containing those points lies in that plane.
C. Sometimes. In Plane Postulate the points do not have to be collinear
to lie in a plane.

B. “Make Me Complete”
Direction: Complete the following given statements.

6. All right angles are __________________________.


7. Three noncollinear points determine a __________________________.
8. The intersection of two planes is a __________________________.
9. Any __________________________ points are collinear.
10. A __________________________ is a statement which is assumed to be
true without proof.

Day 3-4. Axioms and Theorems

Axiom is a mathematical statement that is accepted to be true without


any proof. In general, we use ‘postulate’ in geometry that was being discussed
in the last module and ‘axiom’ in other sections of mathematics. These are
useful in proving theorems and other statements in geometry.

Listed below are some of the axioms (real numbers and equality) often
used in Algebra and Geometry.

Notice that to justify the validity of the
given statement, we used the undefined
terms and several postulates in the
proof. This kind of statement is an
example of a theorem. Unlike postulate,
a theorem is a statement that has to be
proven before being accepted. The proof
in the theorem is a sequence of true facts
such as undefined terms, defined terms,
axioms or postulates, and even
previously proven theorems that are
arranged in a logical order. Proof can be
written in paragraph form, flow-chart, or
commonly with two-column proof.
