Which postulate does this illustrate?
Through any three NON-collinear points, there is exactly one plane.
.
why do you think they do not use stands with four legs?
Because, only three of the four legs may rest on the floor (the plane) based on the postulate above. This will cause instability and wobble when trying to take the photograph.
