It is raining outside. 2. At least one angle is obtuse. 3. XY AB 4. m2 90 Identify the two statements that contradict each other. 5. I. PQR is equilateral. II. PQR is a right triangle. II. PQR is isosceles. 6. I. l m II. l and m do not intersect. III. l and m are skew. 7. Fill in the blanks to prove the following statement. In a given triangle, LMN , there is at most one right angle. Given: LMN Prove: LMN has at most one right angle. a. b. c. d. e. f. g. h. i. 8. Evaluate Reasonableness (1)(B) Use indirect reasoning to eliminate all but one of the following answers. In what year was George Washington born? A. 1492 B. 1732 C. 1902 D. 2002 9. Justify Mathematical Argumentss (1)(G) Write an indirect proof. Given: 1 2 Prove: l p Assume ___________. Then 1 2 by ______________________________________ This contradicts our given, _____________. Therefore, our assumption is _____________, and the prove ____________ is true. Geometry: Unit 6 - Indirect Proof 10. Given: ABC is scalene, mABX 36 , mCBX 36 Prove: XB is not perpendicular to AC . Assume ___________. Then BXA and BXC are right angles by def. of perpendicular. Then BXA BXC because ______________________________________ It is given mABX 36 , mCBX 36 , then ____________ because def. of congruent angles. By the Reflexive Property of Congruence _______. So BXA _______ by _______. Therefore, BA _____ by CPCTC. So, ABC is scalene. This contradicts our given, _____________. Therefore, our assumption is _____________, and the prove ______________________ is true. 16. Analyze Mathematical Relationships (1)(F) Identify the two statements that contradict each other. I. The orthocenter of JRK is on the triangle. II. The centroid of III. JRK is inside the triangle. JRK is an obtuse triangle. 17. What temporary assumption is the first step of the following indirect proof? Given: The sides of SFK measures 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm. Prove: The orthocenter SFK is on the triangle. A. The incenter of SFK is inside the triangle. B. The orthocenter of C. The centroid of SFK is inside the triangle. SFK is outside the triangle. D. The orthocenter of SFK is inside or outside the triangle. 18. In the diagram, what are the coordinated of the circumcenter of F. (1.5, 1.5) H. (3, 1.5) G. (6, 0) KMF ? J. (0, 0) 19. For what types of triangles are the centroid, circumcenter, incenter, and orthocenter all inside the triangle? Explain.
