Axio m Set 2 la. If P and Q are any two points, then there exists at least one line containing both P and Q. 1 b. If P and Q are any two points, then there exists at most one line containing both P and Q. 2. If Z is a line, then there exist at least three points on it. 3. If Z is a line, then there exists a point P not on it. 4. There exists at least one line. 5. If Z and m are any two lines, then there exists at least one point P belonging to both l and m. As is more apparent in this reworded version, only Axiom 4 IS an exist­ ence statement.

For the system {A 1, A2, ···An} and axioms. morlc,l,;;; for { A1, A 2, • • · not-An}, hence showing that An is independent in the system. If it is now further supposed that the system is categorical, these two models must then be isomorphic; hence, corresponding statements in the two systems are either both true or both false. But this is impossible by the assumption that "A n " is true in one and "not-An" is true in the other. This assumption must therefore be false; hence, if a system is categorical, it is complete.

Help prove some other theorem. Generally, it is called a lemma when its use is more or less restricted to the theorem in question; if it had other uses, one would usually call it a theorem and give it an appropriate number. 1. Q FIGURE 2. Jr,,,,nc, n r - - - Io -- Proof: Suppose l is a line containing exactly n points P1, P2, · · · , Pn . Since by Theorem 8 there exist other lines parallel to l, we may let m be any line parallel to l. Once again by Theorem 8 there exists still another line, parallel to both m and l, and by Axiom 2 it has a point Q on it, which by the definition of parallel cannot be on either m or l.
