What is a counterexample?

Back

A counterexample is an example that disproves a statement or proposition. For instance, the statement 'Any number divisible by 2 is divisible by 4' can be disproven by the counterexample 10, since 10 is divisible by 2 but not by 4.

What is the Law of Syllogism?

Back

The Law of Syllogism states that if 'If P, then Q' and 'If Q, then R' are both true statements, then 'If P, then R' is also true. It allows for drawing conclusions from two conditional statements.

What are Linear Pair angles?

Back

Linear Pair angles are two adjacent angles that form a straight line. The sum of their measures is always 180 degrees.

How do you find the measure of an angle in a triangle?

Back

To find the measure of an angle in a triangle, use the fact that the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. If you know the measures of the other two angles, subtract their sum from 180 degrees.
