Use the Law of Syllogism to give a valid conclusion.
If a number is divisible by 12, then it is divisible by 6.
If a number is divisible by 6, then it is divisible by 3.
If a number is divisible by 12, then it is divisible by 3.
What is the difference between supplementary and complementary angles?
Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees and complementary angles add up to 90 degrees
What is a compound statement?
Two or more statements joined by the words "and" or "or"

p <-> q
When are biconditionals true?
Both the conditional and converse are true
Determine whether the conclusion following the given statements is justifed by the Law of Detachment or the Law of Syllogism. If neither, write 'invalid'

Law of Detachment
Name all angle classifications and what they mean
Acute - less than 90 degrees
Obtuse - greater than 90 degrees
Right - equal to 90 degrees
Straight - equal to 180 degrees
What is a conjecture?
A concluding statement reached using inductive reasoning.
What is this the symbolic notation of?
~p -> ~q
Inverse
Use the following statements to write a converse.
p: two angles form a linear pair
q: they are adjacent angles
If two angles are adjacent, then they form a linear pair.
What is deductive reasoning?
The process of reasoning logically and drawing conclusions from given facts or statements.
What are all of the components of a linear pair?
2) Supplementary
3) Form a straight line
What is a biconditional statement?
The conjunction of the conditional and the converse.
What is this the symbolic notation of?
~q -> ~p
Contrapositive
Determine the truth value of the following statement and explain:
Angles are congruent if and only if they are vertical angles.
False; conditional is false
Use the Law of Detachment or the Law of Syllogism to reach a valid conclusion. If a valid conclusion cannot be reached, write no conclusion.
Given: If the measures of two angles in a triangle are 30o and 60o, then the third angle is 90o.
Given: If a triangle has a 90o angle, then it is a right triangle.
If the measures of two angles in a triangle are 30o and 60o, then it is a right triangle.
