Euclid used a somewhat different parallel postulate in trying to avoid the notion of the infinite. He observed that when two parallel lines are intersected by a third line, called a transversal, then if you measure two angles formed by these three lines, on the same side of the transversal and between the parallels, they will add to (that is, they will be supplementary). Such angles are called same-side interior angles<span>:</span>
Domain is on the x - axis, so it starts and stops on 1 and 6 and all the other symbols mean that x could be 1, 6, or anything in between. Range is on the y - axis, so the highest point is seven and the lowest is one. Y could be 1, 7, or anything in between.
