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. |
