Answer:
➡Let A, B, and C be three distinct points of a line, with the respective coordinates x, y, and z. If x < y < z, then A-B-C.
➡Proof, By the ruler postulate:
AB = |y-x|
BC = |z-y|
AC = |z-x|.
But y-x is positive because x < y; similarly, z-y and z-x are positive. So:
AB = y-x
BC = z-y
AC = z-x
Finally:
AB + BC = (y - x) + (z - y)
= z-x
=AC.
➡Since AB + BC = AC, A-B-C by the definition of between.If A, B and C are three points on a line, and B lies between A and C.

Answer:
The given condition is A,B,C are three points on line and B lies between A and C. ... the complete line is AC and B is point on it. Hence, AC is classified into two different parts including AB and BC. And hence, AC=AB+BC.
