Abstract
We proved in the first part [1] that plane geometry over Pythagorean fields is axiomatizable by quantifier‐free axioms in a language with three individual constants, one binary and three ternary operation symbols. In this paper we prove that two of these operation symbols are superfluous.

## Abstract This paper continues the investigations begun in [6] and continued in [7] about quantifier‐free axiomatizations of plane Euclidean geometry using ternary operations. We show that plane Euclidean geometry over Archimedean ordered Euclidean fields can be axiomatized using only two ternary
## Abstract In this paper we provide a quantifier‐free constructive axiomatization for Euclidean planes in a first‐order language with only ternary operation symbols and three constant symbols (to be interpreted as ‘points’). We also determine the algorithmic theories of some ‘naturally occurring’
