Q. 2

State examples of Euclid's axioms in our daily life.

Answer

Take the 5 Euclid’s axioms one by one –

Axiom 1: Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another.

Example: Take a simple example.

Say, Raj, Megh, and Anand are school friends. Raj gets marks equal to Megh’s and Anand gets marks equal to Megh’s; so by the first axiom, Raj and Anand’s marks are also equal to one another.

Axiom 2: If equals are added to equals, the whole is equal.

Example: Say, Karan and Simran are artists and they buy the same set of paint consisting of 5 colors. This means, Karan has 5 color set and Simran to has same 5 color set.

⇒(Karan’s 5 colour set) = (Simran’s 5 colour set) …(i)

Now, they need the special set of 3 paint brushes each and so they buy it. This means Karan buys 3 paint brushes and Simran too buy the same kind of 3 paint brushes.

⇒(Karan’s 3 paint brushes) = (Simran’s 3 paint brushes) …(ii)

Add the two equals (i) and (ii), we get

(Karan’s 5 color set) + (Karan’s 3 paint brushes) = (Simran’s 5 colour set) + (Simran’s 3 paint brushes)

⇒Karan’s 8 paint items = Simran’s 8 paint items

This well proves that even after adding their equals, the whole were equal.
