Would you use inductive or deductive reason to come to this conclusion: John was holding a fire extinguisher, so he must have been ready to put out a fire.
What is inductive.
100
Describe what a two-column proof is.
What is a proof where one column gives steps and statements that help solve the problem and a column next to it gives reasons such as theorems that justify each step.
100
What is the property shown here a(b+c) = ab + ac
What is Distributive property
100
What is the difference between deductive and inductive reasoning?
What is deductive reasoning uses definitely known facts to prove a definite answer where as inductive reasoning makes assumption and the conclusions are not 100% definite.
100
What is the truth value of a conditional statement?
What is: whether a statement is true or false
200

What is Jefferson
200
Describe what the Vertical Angles Theorem?
What is a theorem that states that vertical angles are congruent.
200
Define the Symmetric Property
What is if a=b then b=a
200
Find a counter example for the following statement: When it rains, it pours.
What is it can rain lightly sometimes.
200
What is the inverse of a conditional statement
What is when you negate both the hypothesis and the conclusion of the conditional
300
Define the Law of Detachment
What is a law that states that if the hypothesis is true, than the conclusion is true
300
Describe what the Congruent Complements Theorem?
What is a theorem that says that if two angles are complements of the same angle, then they are congruent.
300
List the three properties of congruence
What is the reflexive property, symmetric property, and transitive property
300
Solve (2x + 30) + x = 180 and justify each step.
What is: 3x + 30 = 180 -> distributive property 3x = 150 -> subtraction property x = 50 -> division property
300
What is the converse of this statement:If the figure is a square, then the figure is a quadrilateral.
What is If the figure is a quadrilateral, then the figure is a square.
400
What can you determine from these facts. If a figure is a square , then the figure is a rectangle. If a figure is a rectangle, then the figure has four sides
What is if a figure is a square, then the figure has four sides.

What is: 1. <1 = <4 -> given 2. <4 = <2 -> Vertical Angles Theorem 3. <1 = <2 -> Transitive Property 4. <1 = <3 -> Vertical Angles Theorem 5. <2 = <3 -> Transitive Property
400
Solve for 2x + 9 = 19 and justify the steps
What is: 1. subtract 9 from each side by the subtraction property 2. divide 2 by each side by the division property 3. x= 5
400
