FOM11 1.1 Making Conjechires: Inductive Reasoning

If the same result occurs over and over again, we may conclude that it will always occur. Thiskind of reasoning is called inducttve reasoning.

Inductive reasoning can lead to a conjecture, which is a testable expression that is based onavaUable evidence but is not yet proved.

Example 1: Use inductive reasoning to make a conjecture about the product of an odd integerand an even integer.

Example 2: Make a conjecture about mtersecting lines and the angles formed.

Some conjectures initially seem to be valid, but are shown not to be valid after more evidence isgathered.

digits 1 to 6. Place them in such away that the numbers 1 to 6 onlyappear once in each row and column

In the more difficult puzzles there are many occasionswhen two or more possible numbers can go in each celtand you »vill usually have to pencil these possibilities inusing small writing before deciding which goes where

Before this stage there are always some cells that canhave only one solution. It is better to try and find allthese solutions first, before moving on to findsolutions for cells that have multiple possible solutions.

In this 2x3 box there is only oneplace to put the 5. Look along The

rows and columns to see why.

FOM11 1.3 Using Reasoning to Find A Counterexample to a Conjecture

We know that inductive reasoning can lead to a conjecture, which may or may not be true. Oneway a conjecture may be proven false is by a counterexample,

Example 1: If possible, find a counterexample for each conjecture. If not, write "true"

a. Conjecture: Every mammal has fur.

b. Conjecture: The acute angles m a right triangle are equal.

c. Conjecture: A polygon has more sides than diagonals.

d. Conjecture: The square of every even number is even.

e. Conjecture: An even number is any number which is not odd.

Example 2: Three conjectures are given.For which conjectures is this diagram a counterexample?

A. The opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.

B. A quadrilateral cannot have both a 90° angle and an obtuse angle.

C. Every trapezoid has 2 pairs of equal angles.

FOM11 1.4.2 Deductive Reasoning Part II

When we make a conclusion based on statements that we accept as true,we are using deductive reasoning. The rules we follow when perfonning algebraic

manipulations are things that we accept (and know) as tme.So we are using deductive reasoning to prove a statement is always true.

Statements that we know are true:

Any Integer multiplied by 2 is an even number.- This means that 2x or 2(any combination of variables and coefficients) will always be even.

If you add 1 to any even integer you will get an odd number.- This means that 2x + 1 or 2(any combination of variables and coefficients) + 1 will aliaaxs be odd.

Consecutive Numbers follow each other in numerical order

- This means that x, x+l, x-*-2, x+3are4 numbers that come one after the other numerically.

- 2x, 2x+ 2, 2x+ 4, 2x+ 6are4 consecutive even numbers

- 2x+l, 2x+3, 2x+5, 2x+7are4 consecutive odd numbers

Example 1: Use deductive reasoning to prove that the sum of an odd number and an even numberis always odd.

Finishing a Proof:

- If proving an answer Is even it should look like this -^ 2(any combination of variable terms)- If proving an answer is odd it should look like this -> 2(any combination of variable terms) + 1- If proving an answer is divisible by 3 it should look like this -» 3(any combination of variable terms)- If proving an answer is divisible by 4 it should look like this -> 4(any combination of variable terms)- If proving an answer is dwislble by 5 It should look like this -> 5(any combination of variable terms)

Important Tips to remember:

- Proving Mathematical Concepts using Deductive Reasoning uses ALGEBRA- Remember to square something means to multiply by itself! If there is more than 1 term being

squared you MUST use the box method (or arrows) to multiplySum = Add

Difference = Subtract

- Product = Multiply- Quotient = Divide

- If the question involves more than one "number" you must use a different letter(variable) for each term! (use. same variable for any consecutive numbers)

For example, to prove something about the sum of 2 odd numbers and an even number It would looklike this:

(2x+l)+ (2y + 1) + 2zOdd + Odd + Even

FOM11 1.6 Reasoning to Solve Problems

Reminder: A conjecture is a conclusion based on examples.

We know that inductive reasoning can lead to a conjecture that may be proven by deductivereasoning. However, conjectures may be false, and can be disproven by a counterexample.

Example 1: Decide whether the process used is inductive or deductive reasoning:

a. Show the sum of two even numbers is even by using several examples.

b. No mathematician is boring. Ann is a mathematician. Therefore, Ann is notboring.

c. One counterexample proves that a conjecture is false.

d. You show why your statement makes sense.

e. You give evidence that your statement is true.

f. Six other examples to show fhat your conjecture is true.

g. What three corns have a value of $0.60?

FOM11 Notes

A Logic Puzzle is a word problem which requires the use of Mathematical Deductive Reasoning to solve.Deductive Reasoning, is the process of working from one or more general statements to reach a logically

certain conclusion.

Example 1; The Boxes

There are three boxes. One is labeled "APPLES" another Is labeled "ORANGES". The last one is labeled

"APPLES AND ORANGES". You know that each is labeled Incorrectly. You may ask me to pick one fruit

from one box which you choose. How can you label the boxes correctly?

Example 2: Mary's mum has four children.

The first child is called April.

The second May.

The third June.

What is the name of the fourth child?

Often Logic Puales Include clues to help you find the solution, j

If a logic puzile seems too difficult, It Is often helpful to use a table to keep track of the clues.

Example 3: Danny is having a birthday party with 6 of his

family members. They are his grandmother, mother,

aunt, brother, father, and uncle. Their names in random

order are Ben, Lily, Jeff, Betty, Jane, and Luke. Look at

the clues to discover the names of Danny's family

members.

CLUES:1. Ben is not Dann/s uncle.

2. Danny's grandmother's name starts with B.

3. Luke is not Danny's brother.

4. Lily is not his aunt.

5. Danny's father's name is Jeff.

Kakuro is an arithmetic puzzle in a grid. You must place the digits 1 to 9 into a grid of squaresso that each horizontal or vertical run of white squares adds up to the due printed either tothe left of or above the run.

No digit can be repeated within any single run. Runs end when you reach a non-white square.Every puzzle has a single uiiique solution and can be solved purely by logic - no guessing lgrequired.

20. No, they are not equal. Angle d and the right angle are supplementary,BO d must also be a right angle.

If angle e is a right angle, then the side opposite to it will be ahypotenuse.

Using the Pytfaagorean theorem:6a+8a=3d+64

6'+8'-100

da+8a-10aBut the length of the side opposite e is 9 units, not 10, so e is not a right angle.

Therefore, angle a and angle b are not equal.
