Conditional: If the sum of two angle measures is 180 degrees, then the angles are supplementary. √ Converse: If the angles are supplementary, then the sum of two angle measures is 180 degrees. √ The sum of two angle measures is 180 degrees if and only if the angles are supplementary. 2. Conditional: If a triangle is isosceles, then the triangle has two congruent sides. √ Converse: If a triangle has 2 congruent sides, then the triangle is isosceles. √ A triangle is isosceles if and only if the triangle has two congruent sides. 3. Conditional: If a candidate becomes president, they have won the election. √ Converse: If a candidate wins the election, they become president. √ A candidate becomes president if and only if they win the election.

In fact, looking for patterns and making conjectures is part of the inductive reasoning process. The goal of inductive reasoning is to be able to find and describe patterns, and to make real-life conjectures using this reasoning. Using Inductive Reasoning Finding and Describing Patterns Goal 1 1. Sketch the next figure in the pattern. • There are three simple steps Goal 2 of inductive reasoning. – 1. Look for a pattern. Look at several examples. Use diagrams and table to help discover a pattern. Each figure in the pattern looks like the previous – 2. Make a Conjecture. Use example to make a conjecture. A conjecture is an unproven figure with another row of squares added to the statement based on observations. Discuss the bottom. Each figure looks like a stairway. conjecture with other, and if necessary modify it. – 3. Verify the Conjecture. Use logical reasoning to verify that the conjecture is true in all cases. Extra Examples 1. 32 42 52 Each row is adding another square. 2. 1,4,16,64 --> 3. -5, -2, 4, 13 --> Each number is four times the previous number. The next number is 256. You add 3 to get the second number, then 6 to the third number, and you continue to add the next multiple of three.

It involves taking two points on a coordinate plane and finding the distance between them. Formula • You take the two endpoint of the segment (x1, y1) (x2, y2) • And add the Xs together and divide the sum by 2, then do the same for the Ys. That should give you the coordinates of a point directly in the middle of the two Practice Problems • Find the distance between the two points: 1) (3,-4) (6,8) Answer: (4.5, 2) 2) (10,-7) (5,4) Answer: (7.5, 1.5) 3) (3,9) (14,7) Answer: (8.5, 8) Ex: Web Links • http://www.mathopenref.com/coordmidp oint.html • http://www.onlinemathlearning.com/coor dinate-geometry.html • http://hotmath.com/help/gt/genericalg1/s ection_12_3.html The Law of Detachment By Kyle Sorreta The Law of Detachment The law of detachment is used for determining if a conditional statement is true or not. In this power-point I will be explaining the law, showing some examples, and giving some helpful websites. Rules, Properties, and Formulas Rule: The law states that if P=Q then the value of P is also the value of Q Examples • If two angles equal 90º, then they are complementary. Angle 1 and angle 2 add up to 90º. So angle 1 and angle 2 are complementary. • Kelly knows that if she misses practice before a game, then she will not start in the game.

Important Rules • Formula for y intercept: y=mx+b • M is the slope of the line and b is the y- intercept. • When given two points of a line, the first thing you should find is the slope. You would find it using the slope formula. y2 - y1 x2 - x1 • Then once you’ve found m, all you have to do is plug it into the y intercept equation using an x and a y from one of the coordinates that they give you.

Then you would follow the slope (2) which equals to 2/1. So you would move to spaces up and then one space to the right and make a point there. Continue to make points one after another. You can also go backwards if there isn’t enough room, 2/1 = down two and to the left one. Once you have your points you draw your line. In the picture, A is the y-intercept and the other points follow the slope.

Yes they are. There are arc on the angles show that the angles are congruent. Are these lines parallel? Yes they are. They angles are congruent. Are these lines parallel? Yes because the alternate interior angles are congruent.

By: Charlie Marshall Summary Goal: To prove 2 triangles are congruent, using a proof table and multiple thereoms, postulates, and laws. The main idea of congruent triangle proofs is to use a proof table and show that two triangles are congruent using congruence shortcuts such as: ASA, AAS, SAS, SSS, HL • • Rules Properties and Formulas There are 5 postulates used in finding congruence. The one shown is ASA, or Angle Side Angle. When a triangle fits the descriptions of one of the congruence postulates, you can mathematically state it is congruent. List of Postulates: – ASA- states that if two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent. – SAS- states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are ccongruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then these two trianges are congruent. – SSS-states that if three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent. – AAS-states that if two angles and the non-included side one triangle are congruent to two angles and the non-included angle of another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent. – HL- states If the hypotenuse and leg of one right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent QuickTime™ and a decompressor are needed to see this picture. Examples AB and XY are congruent hypotenuses QuickTime™ and a decompressor are needed to see this picture. 1. 2. 3. 4. AB = XY <C = 90°, <Y = 90° AC = ZY ∆ABC = ∆ZYX For HL, you must come up with a ASS or SSA postulate. These technically only work on right triangles. So the reason the last statement in this proof is HL, is that it’s a right triangle 1. 2. 3. 4.
