What happens if the father guesses that the child will not be returned to him? ANSWER: There is no solution. •If the crocodile keeps the child, he violates his rule, as the father predicted correctly. •If the crocodile returns the child, he still violates his rule as the father’s prediction was wrong. Van Hiele Levels Children at Level 0 will often say all of these shapes are triangles, except E, which is too "skinny". They may say F is "upside down". Students at Level 1 will recognize that only E and F are valid triangles Number Pattern Is this proof of how numbers were developed? Mathematical Proof 2=1 a=b a2 = ab a2 - b2 = ab-b2 (a-b)(a+b) = b(a-b) a+b = b b+b = b 2b = b 2=1 Geometry Undefined terms • Are not defined, but instead explained. • Form the foundation for all definitions in geometry. Postulates • A statement that is accepted as true without proof. Theorem • A statement in geometry that has been proved. Inductive Reasoning •A form of reasoning that draws a conclusion based on the observation of patterns. •Steps 1. Identify a pattern 2. Make a conjecture •Find counterexample to disprove conjecture Inductive Reasoning •Does not definitely prove a statement, rather assumes it •Educated Guess at what might be true Example Polling 30% of those polled agree therefore 30% of general population Inductive Reasoning Not Proof Identifying a Pattern Find the next item in the pattern. 7, 14, 21, 28, … Multiples of 7 make up the pattern. The next multiple is 35. Identifying a Pattern Find the next item in the pattern. 4, 9, 16, … Sums of odd numbers make up the pattern. 1=1 The next number is 25. 1+ 3=4 1+ 3 +5=9 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 = 16 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 = 25 12 = 1 22 = 4 32 = 9 42 = 16 52 = 25 Identifying a Pattern Find the next item in the pattern.

List some examples and look for a pattern. 1+1=2 3.14 + 0.01 = 3.15 3,900 + 1,000,017 = 1,003,917 The sum of two positive numbers is positive. Identifying a Pattern Find the next item in the pattern. January, March, May, ... Alternating months of the year make up the pattern. The next month is July. The next month is… then August Perhaps the pattern was… Months with 31 days. Complete the conjecture. The product of two odd numbers is ? . List some examples and look for a pattern. 11=1 33=9 5 7 = 35 The product of two odd numbers is odd. Inductive Reasoning Counterexample - An example which disproves a conclusion •Observation 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41 are odd •Conclusion All prime numbers are odd. 2 is a counterexample Finding a Counterexample Show that the conjecture is false by finding a counterexample. For every integer n, n3 is positive. Pick integers and substitute them into the expression to see if the conjecture holds. Let n = 1. Since n3 = 1 and 1 > 0, the conjecture holds. Let n = –3. Since n3 = –27 and –27 0, the conjecture is false. n = –3 is a counterexample. Example 1 Inductive Reasoning What can you conclude? 90% of humans are right-handed. Joe is a human. Therefore, the probability that Joe is right-handed is 90%. Example 2 Every life form that everyone knows of depends on liquid water to exist. Therefore, all known life depends on liquid water to exist. Example 3 All of the swans that all living beings have ever seen are white. Therefore, all swans are white. Inductive reasoning allows for the possibility that the conclusion is false, even where all of the premises are true Conjectures about our class…. Logic Common Sense True? Supplementary angles are adjacent. 23⁰ 157⁰ Based on the definition, supplementary angles sum to 180⁰. Therefore, supplementary angles can be non-adjacent, so the conjecture is false.

A Decimal Point 5.9 Homework 2.1 and 2.2 If… To determine truth in geometry… Information is put into a conditional statement. The truth can then be tested. A conditional statement in math is a statement in the if-then form. If hypothesis, then conclusion A bi-conditional statement is of the form If and only if. If and only if hypothesis, then conclusion. Underline the hypothesis twice The conclusion once 1. A figure is a parallelogram if it is a rectangle. 2. Four angles are formed if two lines intersect. Analyzing the Truth Value of a Conditional Statement Determine if the conditional is true. If false, give a counterexample. If two angles are acute, then they are congruent. You can have acute angles with measures of 80° and 30°. In this case, the hypothesis is true, but the conclusion is false. Since you can find a counterexample, the conditional is false. Analyzing the Truth Value of a Conditional Statement Determine if the conditional is true. “If a number is odd, then it is divisible by 3” If false, give a counterexample. An example of an odd number is 7. It is not divisible by 3. In this case, the hypothesis is true, but the conclusion is false. Since you can find a counterexample, the conditional is false. For Problems 1 and 2: Identify the hypothesis and conclusion of each conditional. 1. A triangle with one right angle is a right triangle. H: A triangle has one right angle. C: The triangle is a right triangle. 2. All even numbers are divisible by 2. H: A number is even. C: The number is divisible by 2. 3. Determine if the statement “If n2 = 144, then n = 12” is true. If false, give a counterexample. False; n = –12. Identify the hypothesis and conclusion of each conditional. 1. A mapping that is 2. The a reflection is a type of transformation. H: A mapping is a reflection. C: The mapping is a transformation. quotient of two negative numbers is positive. H: Two numbers are negative. C: The quotient is positive. 3. Determine if the conditional “If x is a number then |x| > 0” is true. If false, give a counterexample. False; x = 0. Different Forms of Conditional Statements Given Conditional Statement If an animal is a cat, then it has four paws. Converse: If an animal has 4 paws, then it is a cat. There are other animals that have 4 paws that are not cats, so the converse is false. Inverse: If an animal is not a cat, then it does not have 4 paws. There are animals that are not cats that have 4 paws, so the inverse is false. Contrapositive: If an animal does not have 4 paws, then it is not a cat; True. Cats have 4 paws, so the contrapositive is true. A bi-conditional statement is of the form If and only if. If and only if hypothesis, then conclusion. Example A triangle is isosceles if and only if the triangle has two congruent sides. Write as a biconditional Parallel lines are two coplanar lines that never intersect Two lines are parallel if and only if they are coplanar and never intersect.

Modus Ponens Most common deductive logical argument p⇒q p∴q If p, then q p, therefore q Example If I stub my toe, then I will be in pain. I stub my toe. Therefore, I am in pain. Modus Tollens Second form of deductive logic is p⇒q ~q ∴ ~p If p, then q not q, therefore not p Example If today is Thursday, then the cafeteria will be serving burritos. The cafeteria is not serving burritos, therefore today is not Thursday. If-Then Transitive Property Third form of deductive logic A chains of logic where one thing implies another thing. p⇒q q⇒r∴p⇒r If p, then q If q, then r, therefore if p, then r Example If today is Thursday, then the cafeteria will be serving burritos. If the cafeteria will be serving burritos, then I will be happy. Therefore, if today is Thursday, then I will be happy.
