It remains to show that \(\measuredangle_h\) satisfies the conditions Axiom IIIa, Axiom IIIb, and Axiom IIIc. Since \(\measuredangle_h P' O R'=\measuredangle P' O R'\) and the maps \((Q,P)\mapsto P'\), \((Q,R)\mapsto R'\) are continuous, the claim follows from the corresponding axiom of the Euclidean plane.

On the other hand, the observations made in the previous section are intuitively obvious — this is the main advantage of the axiomatic approach.

One of such conditions is given in Axiom IV; it states that if two pairs of sides of two triangles are equal, and the included angles are equal up to sign, then the triangles are congruent. This axiom is also called side- angle-side congruence condition, or briefly, SAS congruence condition.

    Recall that Euclidean space is the set \(\mathbb{R}^3\) of all triples \((x,y,z)\) of real numbers such that the distance between a pair of points \(A=(x_A,y_A,z_A)\) and \(B=(x_B,y_B,z_B)\) is define...Recall that Euclidean space is the set \(\mathbb{R}^3\) of all triples \((x,y,z)\) of real numbers such that the distance between a pair of points \(A=(x_A,y_A,z_A)\) and \(B=(x_B,y_B,z_B)\) is defined by the following formula: Formally, sphere with center \(O\) and radius \(r\) is the set of points in the space that lie on the distance \(r\) from \(O\). In spherical geometry, the role of lines play the great circles; that is, the intersection of the sphere with a plane passing thru \(O\).

The full turn is assumed to be \(2 \cdot \pi\); it corresponds to the angle measure in radians. (For a while you may think that \(\pi\) is a positive real number that measures the size of a half turn in certain units.

    A half-line \([AX)\) is called tangent to the arc \(ABC\) at \(A\) if the line \((AX)\) is tangent to \(\Gamma\), and the points \(X\) and \(B\) lie on the same side of the line \((AC)\).

If the arc is formed by a union of two half lines \([AX)\) and \([BY)\) in \((AC)\), then the half-line \([AX)\) is considered to be tangent to the arc at \(A\). Show that there is a unique arc with endpoints at the given points \(A\) and \(C\), that is tangent to the given half line \([AX)\) at \(A\).

Suppose that \(\Lambda\) denotes the plane; it contains the points \(A\), \(B\), \(P'\), \(\hat P\) and the circle \(\Gamma=\Sigma\cap\Lambda\). (It also contains \(Q'\) and \(\hat{Q}\) but we will not use these points for a while.)
