(a) is a reasoning that uses facts, rules, definitions, or properties in a logical order to show that a desired conclusion is true.
(a) is to angle as meter is to length
Hypothesis: A pentagon has five vertices
Conclusion: A pentagon has five sides.
Which of these conditional statements corresponds to the given statements?
a. If a pentagon has five sides, then it has five vertices.
b. A pentagon has five sides only if it has five vertices.
c. A pentagon has five sides whenever it has five vertices.
d. A triangle has five vertices if it has five sides.
