Answer:

Postulate of inequality illustrated is:

Transitive property of inequality

Explanation:

Transitive property of inequality says that:

If a,b and c are three elements and < be a inequality sign such that

a<b and b<c then, a<c

Here, we are given that:

a<b and b<2 then a<2

On comparing it with above property

a=a, b=b and c=2 such that a<b and b<c then a<c

i.e. a<2

Hence, Postulate of inequality illustrated is:

Transitive property of inequality
