12. A Pair of Lines, which have two common points, have identical directions.

∗13. (a) A Pair of Lines, which have different directions, have not two common points.

(b) A Pair of Lines, which have a common point and different directions, are intersectional.

∗14. A Pair of intersectional Lines have different directions.

∗15. A Pair of Lines, which have a common point and identical directions, are coincidental.

∗16. If there be given a Line and a point without it: it is possible to draw a Line, through the given point, having a direction different from that of the given Line.

17. A Line, which has a point in common with one of two coincidental Lines has a point in common with the other also.

18. A Line, which has a point in common with one of two separational Lines, has a point separate from the other.

∗19. A Line, which has a point in common with one of two separational Lines and also a point in common with the other, is intersectional with both.

∗20. If there be three Lines; the first a right Line; the second, not assumed to be right, having a point separate from the first and being equidistantial from it; the third a right Line intersecting the first and diverging from it without limit on the side next to the second: the third is intersectional with the second.
