    Theorem.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Postulate/Axiom: Can't be proven or disproven.

    Definition: Defines a term. Can be proven.

    Theorem: Can be proven.

    "Proof" (informal but it works) : Triangle has 180°, that means two angles will be less than 180°. Right angles are 90°, that means two 90° angles add up to 180°. Something that is less than 180° is less than 180°.

    This statement is provable, but doesn't necessarily define anything.
