11. Postulates (Section 2-5)

12. More Postulates (Section 2-5)

13. Determine whether each statement is always, sometimes, or never true
Determine whether each statement is always, sometimes, or never true. Explain. If plane T contains 𝐸𝐹 and 𝐸𝐹 contains point G, then plane T contains point G.
Example 2 (Section 2-5)

14. Determine whether each statement is always, sometimes, or never true
