c) a postulate
d) a proof
b) a definition
An infinite number of lines can pass through a point
True
Postulates
Postulates are assumptions which are specific to Geometry and are universally true.
We have to compare their new weights when each of them gains 2kg. Using Euclid's second axiom, If equals are added to the equals, the wholes are equal. Therefore, the weight of Ram is equal to the weight of Ravi
