= Parallel Postulate, Perpendicular Postulate and Transitive Property of Parallel Lines = By: Katie Wilhelmus and Margoth Mackey

Perpendicular Postulate-If there is a line and a point not on the line, then there is exactly one line through the point perpendicular to the given line.

Transitive Property of Parallel Lines- If two lines are parallel to the same line, then they are parallel to each other.

Practice Problems- 1. name a set of parallel lines. 2. name a set of perpendicular lines.

ANSWERS: 1. line m and line n 2. line m and line p and line n and line q  1b. If two lines are parallel to the same line, then they are parallel to eachother.
