Question
Verify by showing that they follow the three incidence axioms:
(I1) Given any two discrete points there exists a unique line containing them
(I2) Given any line there exists at least two distinct points lying on it
(I3) There exists three non-collinear points
We will use Hilbert’s axiom system that is constructed with the three primitive terms point, line and plane (lie on).

Transcribed Image Text:¹A great circle is the intersection of $2 with any plane through the origin of R³.

Transcribed Image Text:1. S²
Consider the S² Geometry, whose interpretation is the following:
• point: Point on the surface of the unit sphere
s² = {(x, y, z) = R³|x² + y² + z² = 1}.
line: The great circles¹ of the unit sphere.
● lie on: A point p (x, y, z) = S² lies on a great circle l if p = l.
