Sinopsis

Excerpt from Euclid's Elements of Geometry, Vol. 1: Based on Simson's Text; With Explanatory Remarks, Etc

I. A point is that which has no parts, or that which has no magnitude.

Euclid's point is therefore imaginary, shewing position only: we cannot make a point, however small, without size or magnitude; the smallest dot we can make with a pen or pencil must have length and breadth to be visible.

Excerpt from Euclid's Elements of Geometry, Vol. 1: Based on Simson's d104; With Explanatory Remarks, Etc
Here a line is merely an imaginary track from one point to eu other, whether straight or curved -as in the case of the point, aline drawn on paper must have length and breadth to be visible. Euclid's definitions of a point and line apply only to ideal points and lines, which can exist only in imagination.
