The correct answer is:

When proving a statement in geometry, you start with given statements. Using these, we make a step-by-step list of statements we can prove using theorems, postulates and definitions to arrive at the statement we wish to prove.

A geometric proof is a step-by-step explanation that uses definitions, axioms, postulates, and previously proved theorems to draw a conclusion about a geometric statement. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.
