Learning Competencies:
1. “Describes a Mathematical System”
2. “Illustrates the Need for an Axiomatic Structure of a Mathematical
System in General and in Geometry in Particular: (a) defined terms; (b)
undefined (c) postulates and (d) theorems”
Code: M8GE- IIIa-1
M8GE-IIIa-c-1
Objective/s:
1. Define some terms in the Mathematical System
2. Enumerate the components of Mathematical System
.
Lesson No. 1
Lesson Title: “Mathematical System”
I. Background Information for the Learners:
Mathematical System is a set with one or more binary operations on it. There
are four (4) parts of the system: 1. Undefined terms – terms that have no exact or
formal definitions but are only described using simpler known terms. In geometry, the
terms point, line and plane are undefined. They are just given a general description of
what they are. 2. Definitions, 3. Axiom – an assumption accepted as true even
without proof and Postulate – a statement that describes and a fundamental
relationship between the basic terms in geometry. It is accepted as true even without
proof. 4. Theorem – a statement or conjecture that can be proven true by using
postulates and definitions of basic and undefined terms.
Examples for the Definitions: 1.Collinear it is stated that two or more points
are collinear if and only if there is a line containing all these points. For the
2.Postulates: Example; Given two points, there is one and only one line containing
both of them. (Two points determine a line). And for the 3.Theorems: A line contains
an infinite number of points.
