Draw the next shape in the pattern: 2. Draw the next shape in the pattern: 3. Find the next number in the pattern: 1 2 3 4 , , , ,... 2 3 4 5 4. Find the next number in the pattern: 1, 4, 9,16, 25,... 1.6 Inductive Reasoning (cont.) Activity #1 1. Draw the next 3 towers in this sequence of towers: 2. Without drawing more towers, figure out how many squares would in the 10th tower. Explain your reasoning. 3. How many squares would be in the “zero”th tower? 4. If you start with the “zero”th tower, how many MORE squares would you need to build the third tower? Why? 5. How many squares are in the 20th tower? How did you figure this out? 6. Express the number of squares that would exist in the nth tower. Your answer will have an “n” in it. 1.6 Inductive Reasoning (cont.) Activity 2: The table below shows the number of squares in a sequence of towers: Tower 1 2 3 4 5 # of Squares 7 12 17 22 27 1. How many squares are added from one to tower to the next? 2. How many squares would there be in a “zero”th tower? 3. How many squares would there be in the 10th tower? How do you know? Activity 3: The table below is called an “In/Out” Table. The “rule” for the table can be calculated much like the previous tower problems. The IN would represent the tower number and the OUT would be the number of squares in each tower. IN 1 2 3 4 5 OUT 5 9 13 17 21 1. Explain what you do to the “IN” to get the “OUT” 2. How can you express the answer to the previous question symbolically? That is, if the IN were “n”, what would the OUT be? 1.6 Inductive Reasoning (cont.) The Handshake Problem You’re at a party. As each new person arrives, they shake the hand of everyone who is already at the party. This has been going on since the very beginning of the party. Later on in the evening, you notice that there are 25 people at the party (including yourself) and no one has left yet. How many handshakes have taken place? (a) Often times in math, it’s much easier to look at a simpler problem to solve a harder one. Lets try this strategy here: how many handshakes would have taken place if there were 3 people at the party? How about 4? 5? (b) Make a chart until you notice a pattern # of People # of Handshakes (c) Explain the pattern you found. (d) So…., how many handshakes for 25 people? (e) Find a shortcut that requires less than 5 calculations to find the # of handshakes if there are “n” people at the party. 1.6 Inductive Reasoning (cont.) Question: How many different angles are formed when 10 rays are drawn in the interior of an angle? For example, when one ray is drawn, 3 angles are formed: (a) When two rays are drawn, how many are formed? _____________ (b) Complete this table and predict the number angles formed when ten rays are drawn. (use scrap paper for your drawings) # of Rays 1 # of Angles Formed 3 (c) Describe the pattern you found in the above table. (d) How many different angles are formed when 10 rays are drawn in the interior of an angle? 1.7 Deductive Reasoning Statements: (1) If it is 2011, then Obama is president. (2) It is 2011. Conclusion: Obama is president Warm-Up: Consider the two arguments Statements: One of these arguments is considered (1) If it is 2011, then valid and the other is considered Obama is president. invalid. Which one is valid and why? (2) Obama is president. Which one is invalid and why? Conclusion: It is 2011 Deductive Reasoning is __________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ A valid argument is _____________________________________________________________ A counterexample is _____________________________________________________________ For each of the following examples, decide if the argument is valid or invalid. If the argument is invalid, explain why and give a counterexample. 1. If someone buys a new Lamborghini, she or he will pay over $200,000. Marie does not buy a new Lamborghini. Therefore Marie does not pay over $200,000 for her new car. 2. If people listen to Rush Limbaugh, they will hear a lot of gossip about Washington. Mr. Jones hears gossip about Washington all the time. Mr. Jones must listen to Rush Limbaugh. 3. If you do all of your Geometry homework, you will do well on the quizzes. Sevara does all of her Geometry homework. Sevara must do well on the quizzes. 1.7 Deductive Reasoning (cont.) 4. In China, job applicants do not ask how much they will be paid when they are hired. When Jin Tai was hired, he asked his employer how much he would be paid. Jin Tai must have been hired outside of China. 5. If Alec washes the school’s windows, he will be paid $5.00 an hour. Alec washes the school’s windows for four hours and so gets paid $20.00. 6. If Maria leaves work at five o’clock, she will run into rush-hour traffic. If Maria runs into rush-hour traffic, she will arrive home in a bad mood. Therefore if Maria leaves work at five o’clock, she will arrive home in a bad mood. 7. Some solutions to the equations are integers. Some integers are less than zero. We can conclude that some solutions to the equation are less than zero. 8. If a politician decides to run for president, then he or she will make many visits to New Hampshire. Senator Dole has decided to run for president. Senator Dole will make many visits to New Hampshire. From the Mathematics Teacher, September 1995 PRACTICE: 1: Given: If two numbers are negative, then their product is positive. Given: -3 and -4 are negative numbers. What can we conclude? 2: Given: If you want to pick apples, go to Bolton. Given: I went to Bolton. What can we conclude? 3: Given: If I go to the store, then I will stop at the post office. Given: If I stop at the post office, then I will buy stamps. What can we conclude?
