Numbers Proving the But we haven't proved the full-strength of side-splitter and we field axioms don't need it for division into equal segments. Interlude on Circles An Area function Side-splitter Pythagorean Theorem Irrational Numbers Geometry, the Section 1: From Geometry to Numbers Common Core, and Proof John T. Baldwin, Andreas Mueller Overview From Geometry to Numbers Proving the field axioms Interlude on Circles An Area function Side-splitter Pythagorean Theorem Irrational Numbers From geometry to numbers Geometry, the Common Core, and Proof We want to define the addition and multiplication of numbers. John T. Baldwin, We make three separate steps. Andreas Mueller 1 identify the collection of all congruent line segments as Overview having a common `length'. Choose a representative From segment OA for this class . Geometry to Numbers 2 define the operation on such representatives. Proving the field axioms 3 Identify the length of the segment with the end point A. Interlude on Now the multiplication is on points. And we define the Circles addition and multiplication a little differently. An Area function We focus on step 2; it remains to show the multiplication and Side-splitter addition satisfy the axioms. Pythagorean Theorem Irrational Numbers No. For this we need `addition on points'. We will worry about this later.
