Answer:

a conjecture, a postulate, and a definition

Explanation:

A premise is an assumption something is true. When completing a proof, we must use already established truths to get us from one step to another; these can be theorems, postulates, conjectures, or definitions. However, premises themselves cannot be used to prove something.
