5 Alan Guth, Introduction to Non-Euclidean Spaces (After finishing dynamics of homogeneous expansion), Lecture 10, October 10, 2013, p. 5. Equivalent Statements of the 5th Postulate Equivalent Statements of the 5th Postulate (c) Given any figure there exists a figure, similar to it, of any size. (Two polygons are similar if their corresponding angles are equal, and their corresponding sides are proportional.) (d) There is a triangle in which the sum of the three angles is equal to two right angles (i.e., 180 ). Lecture 10, October Lecture 10, October Giovanni Geralamo Saccheri ( ) Carl Friedrich Gauss ( ) In 1733, Saccheri, a Jesuit priest, published Euclides ab omni naevo vindicatus (Euclid Freed of Every Flaw). The book was a study of what geometry would be like if the 5th postulate were false. He hoped to find an inconsistency, but failed. Source unknown. All rights reserved.
