2. Ceva's theorem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceva's_theorem

   In Euclidean geometry, Ceva's theorem is a theorem about triangles. Given a triangle ABC, let the lines AO, BO, CO be drawn from the vertices to a common point O (not on one of the sides of ABC), to meet opposite sides at D, E, F respectively. (The segments AD, BE, CF are known as cevians.) Then, using signed lengths of segments,

   Let AB and BC be two segments of a line a which have no points in common aside from the point B, and, furthermore, let A′B′ and B′C′ be two segments of the same or of another line a′ having, likewise, no point other than B′ in common. Then, if AB ≅ A′B′ and BC ≅ B′C′, we have AC ≅ A′C′.

4. Pasch's axiom - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pasch's_axiom

   Pasch's axiom — Let A, B, C be three points that do not lie on a line and let a be a line in the plane ABC which does not meet any of the points A, B, C.If the line a passes through a point of the segment AB, it also passes through a point of the segment AC, or through a point of segment BC.

5. Line segment - Wikipedia

   Analogous to straight line segments above, one can also define arcs as segments of a curve. In one-dimensional space, a ball is a line segment. An oriented plane segment or bivector generalizes the directed line segment. Beyond Euclidean geometry, geodesic segments play the role of line segments.

6. Cevian - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cevian

   In geometry, a cevian is a line segment which joins a vertex of a triangle to a point on the opposite side of the triangle. [1] [2] Medians and angle bisectors are special cases of cevians. The name "cevian" comes from the Italian mathematician Giovanni Ceva, who proved a well-known theorem about cevians which also bears his name. [3]

7. Tarski's axioms - Wikipedia

   An example of a theorem of Euclidean geometry which cannot be so formulated is the Archimedean property: to any two positive-length line segments S 1 and S 2 there exists a natural number n such that nS 1 is longer than S 2. (This is a consequence of the fact that there are real-closed fields that contain infinitesimals. [5])
