Frage Antworten
Conjecture A statement you believe to be true based on inductive reasoning.
Counterexample A drawing, statement, or a picture for when the conjecture is false.
Conditional Statement A statement that can be written in the form "if p, then q" p --> q
Hypothesis The part P of the conditional statement following the word if.
Conclusion The part q in the conditional statement following the word then.
Truth Value True or False (A conditional statement is only false when the hypothesis is true and the conclusion is false.
Negation Of the statement p is "not p" written as ~p
Converse The statement formed by exchanging the hypothesis and conclusion. q --> p
Inverse The statement formed by negating the hypothesis and conclusion. ~p --> ~q
Contrapositive The statement formed by both exchanging and negating the hypothesis and conclusion. ~q --> ~p
Logically Equivalent Statements Related conditional statements that have the same truth value.
Biconditional Statement A statement that can be written in the form "p if and only if q" This means "if p, then q" and "if q, then p"
Definition A statement that describes a mathematical object and can be written as a true biconditional.
Polygon A closed plane figure formed by three or more line segments.
Triangle A three-sided polygon.
Quadrilateral A four-sided polygon.
Proof An argument that uses logic, definitions and properties and previously proven statements to show that a conclusion is true.
Addition Property of Equality if a = b, then a + c = b + c
Subtraction Property of Equality If a = b, then a - c = b - c
Multiplication Property of Equality If a = b, the ac = bc
Division Property of Equality If a = b , then a/c = b/c
Reflexive Property of Equality/Congruence a=a
Symmetric Property of Equality/Congruence If a = b, then b = a
Transitive Property of Equality/Congruence If a = b and b = c, then a = c
Substitution Property of Equality If a = b, then b can be substituted for a in any expression.
Theorem Any statement that you can prove. (Once you have proven a statement you can use it as a reason in later proofs)
Two-Column Proof You list the steps of the proof in the left column, you list the matching reason for each step in the right column.
