Q3:
Consider two ‘postulates’ given below:
(i) Given any two distinct points $A$ and $B$, there exists a third point $C$ which is in between $A$ and $B$.
(ii) There exist at least three points that are not on the same line.
Do these postulates contain any undefined terms? Are these postulates consistent? Do they follow from Euclid’s postulates? Explain.

For me, teaching is part of learning. As I am teaching I am also learning from my learners as they are diverse. Each learner in the classroom brings his or her unique background and ability. These are the elements that I invest in my teaching. Moreover, I allow learners to be themselves. This is a way of creating a conducive environment for learning.
Its been a really nice teaching experience with Mr.Amit so far. He is very knowledgeable and a patient teacher. He always clarifies the concepts clearly and ensures good understanding.
