|
|
negation
|
the negative of a statement. the negation symbol is ~
|
|
inverse
|
the statement formed when you negate the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement
|
|
contrapositive

|
line perpendicular to a plane
|
a line that intersects the plane in in a point and is perpendicular to every line in the plane that intersects it
|
|
biconditional statement

|
logical argument
|
an argument based on deductive reasoning, which uses facts, definitions, and accepted properties in a logical order
|
|
law of detachment
|
if p ➡ q is a true conditional statement and p is true, than q is true
|
|
law of syllogism
|
if p ➡q and q➡r are true conditional statements then p➡r is true
|
|
inductive reasoning
|
the process of using observations or specific data to recognize a patter and making a conjecture
|
|
deductive reasoning
|
the process of combining statements such as general rules or laws to make a logical argument or to identify a specific result or conclusion
