WA Geometry Unit 2 Vocabulary

conditional statement

• a logical statement containing a hypothesis and conclusion. Usually written in "if, the" form.

• a condition is put forth or indicated

• a statement which follows from the hypothesis

• switches hypothesis and conclusion

conclusion

• a logical statement containing a hypothesis and conclusion. Usually written in "if, the" form.

• a condition is put forth or indicated

• a statement which follows from the hypothesis

• switches hypothesis and conclusion

hypothesis

• a logical statement containing a hypothesis and conclusion. Usually written in "if, the" form.

• a condition is put forth or indicated

• switches hypothesis and conclusion

• negates the original conditional statement

inductive reasoning

• when a pattern is discovered based on observations you can form this

• position or theorem made by contradicting subject and predicate or hypothesis and conclusion

• switches hypothesis and conclusion

• negates the original conditional statement

converse

• If 2 lines intersect to form a right angle, then they are perpendicular lines

• a condition is put forth or indicated

• switches hypothesis and conclusion

• negates the original conditional statement

contrapositive

• If 2 lines intersect to form a right angle, then they are perpendicular lines

• a condition is put forth or indicated

• position or theorem made by contradicting subject and predicate or hypothesis and conclusion

• negates the original conditional statement

conjecture

• a condition is put forth or indicated

• position or theorem made by contradicting subject and predicate or hypothesis and conclusion

• unproven statement based on observations

• negates the original conditional statement

deductive reasoning

• using facts (definitions, postulates, theorems, properties, laws of logic)

• a condition is put forth or indicated

• position or theorem made by contradicting subject and predicate or hypothesis and conclusion

• unproven statement based on observations

• negates the original conditional statement
