... Methods of proving theorems Basic methods to prove the theorems: • Direct proof – p q is proved by showing that if p is true then q follows • Indirect proof – Show the contrapositive ¬q ¬p. If ¬q holds then ¬p follows • Proof by contradiction – Show that (p ¬ q) contradicts the assumptions • ...

Let’s try some numerical experimentation to check this proposition: p(0) = 41 which is prime. p(1) = 43 which is prime. p(2) = 47 which is prime. p(3) = 53 which is prime. . . . p(20) = 461 which is prime.
