Chapter 2Deductive Reasoning
• Learn deductive logic• Do your first 2-
column proof• New Theorems and
Postulates
2.1 If – Then Statements
Objectives• Recognize the hypothesis and conclusion of an if-
then statement• State the converse of an if-then statement• Use a counterexample• Understand if and only if
The If-Then Statement
Conditional: is a two part statement with an actual or implied if-then.
If p, then q.
hypothesis conclusion
If the sun is shining, then it is daytime.
Hidden If-Thens A conditional may not contain either if or then!
All of my students love Geometry.
Which is the hypothesis?
Which is the conclusion?
You are my student
you love Geometry
If you are my student, then you love Geometry.
The Converse
A conditional with the hypothesis and conclusion reversed.
If q, then p.
hypothesis conclusion
If it is daytime, then the sun is shining.
Original: If the sun is shining, then it is daytime.
The Counterexample
If p, then q
TRUEFALSE
The only way a conditional can be false is if the hypothesis is true and the conclusion is false. This is called a counterexample.
The Counterexample
The Counterexample
• This is HARD !
The Counterexample If x > 5, then x = 6.
If x = 5, then 4x = 20 x could be equal to 5.5 or 7 etc…
always true, no counterexample
Group Practice
• Provide a counterexample to show that each statement is false.
If you live in California, then you live in La Crescenta.
Group Practice
• Provide a counterexample to show that each statement is false.
If AB BC, then B is the midpoint of AC.
Group Practice
• Provide a counterexample to show that each statement is false.
If a line lies in a vertical plane, then the line is vertical
Group Practice
• Provide a counterexample to show that each statement is false.
If a number is divisible by 4, then it is divisible by 6.
Group Practice
• Provide a counterexample to show that each statement is false.
If x2 = 49, then x = 7.
Other Forms
• If p, then q
• p implies q
• p only if q
• q if p
What do you notice?
White Board Practice
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
VW = XY implies VW XY
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
VW = XY implies VW XY
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
K is the midpoint of JL only if JK = KL
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
K is the midpoint of JL only if JK = KL
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
n > 8 only if n is greater than 7
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
n > 8 only if n is greater than 7
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
I’ll dive if you dive
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
I’ll dive if you dive
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
If a = b, then a + c = b + c
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
If a = b, then a + c = b + c
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
If a + c = b + c, then a = b
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
If a + c = b + c, then a = b
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
r + n = s + n if r = s
• Circle the hypothesis and underline the conclusion
r + n = s + n if r = s
If a conditional and its converse are the same (both true) then it is a biconditional and can use the “if and only if” language.
The Biconditional
If m1 = 90, then 1 is a right angle.
If 1 is a right angle, then m1 = 90.
m1 = 90 if and only if 1 is a right angle.
m1 = 90 iff 1 is a right angle.
2.2 Properties from Algebra
Objectives
• Do your first proof
• Use the properties of algebra and the properties of congruence in proofs
Properties from Algebra
• see properties on page 37
Properties of Equality
Addition Property
if x = y, then x + z = y + z.
Subtraction Property
if x = y, then x – z = y – z.
Multiplication Property
if x = y, then xz = yz.
Division Property
if x = y, and z ≠ 0, then x/z = y/z.
Substitution Property
if x = y, then either x or y may be substituted for the other in any equation.
Reflexive
Property
x = x.
A number equals itself.
Symmetric Property
if x = y, then y = x.
Order of equality does not matter.
Transitive
Property
if x = y and y = z, then x = z.
Two numbers equal to the same number are equal to each other.
Properties of CongruenceReflexive
Property
AB AB≅
A segment (or angle) is congruent to itself
Symmetric Property
If AB CD, then CD AB≅ ≅
Order of equality does not matter.
Transitive
Property
If AB CD and CD EF, then AB ≅ ≅ EF≅
Two segments (or angles) congruent to the same segment (or angle) are congruent to each other.

2.3 Proving Theorems
Objectives
• Use the Midpoint Theorem and the Bisector Theorem
• Know the kinds of reasons that can be used in proofs
PB & J Sandwich• How do I make one?
– Pretend as if I have never made a PB & J sandwich. Not only have I never made one, I have never seen one or heard about a sandwich for that matter.
– Write out detailed instructions in full sentences– I will collect this
First, open the bread package by untwisting the twist tie. Take out two slices of bread set one of these pieces aside. Set the other in front of you on a plate and remove the lid from the container with the peanut butter in it.
Take the knife, place it in the container of peanut butter, and with the knife, remove approximately a tablespoon of peanut butter. The amount is not terribly relevant, as long as it does not fall off the knife. Take the knife with the peanut butter on it and spread it on the slice of bread you have in front of you.
Repeat until the bread is reasonably covered on one side with peanut butter. At this point, you should wipe excess peanut butter on the inside rim of the peanut butter jar and set the knife on the counter.
Replace the lid on the peanut butter jar and set it aside. Take the jar of jelly and repeat the process for peanut butter. As soon as you have finished this, take the slice of bread that you set aside earlier and place it on the slice with the peanut butter and jelly on it, so that the peanut butter and jelly is reasonably well contained within.
The Midpoint Theorem
If M is the midpoint of AB, then
AM = ½ AB and MB = ½ AB

Reasons Used in Proofs
• Given Information
• Definitions
• Postulates (including Algebra)• Theorems
How to write a proof(The magical steps)
1. Copy down the problem.
• Write down the given and prove statements and draw the picture. Do this every single time, I don’t care that it is the same picture, or that the picture is in the book. – Draw big pictures– Use straight lines
2. Mark on the picture
• Read the given information and, if possible, make some kind of marking on the picture. Remember if the given information doesn’t exactly say something, then you must think of a valid reason why you can make the mark on the picture. Use different colors when you are marking on the picture, remember my magical purple pen….use yours.
3. Look at the picture
• This is where it is really important to know your postulates and theorems. Look for information that is FREE, but be careful not to ASSume anything.– Angle or Segment Addition Postulate– Vertical angles– Shared sides or angles– Parallel line theorems
4. Brain.
• Do you have one?
• I mean have you drawn a brain and are you writing down your thought process? Every single time you make any mark on the picture, you should have a specific reason why you can make this mark. If you can do this, then when you fill the brain the proof is practically done.
5. Finally look at what you are trying to prove
• Then try to work backwards and fill in any missing links in your brain. Think about how you can get that final statement.
6. Write the proof.
• (This should be the easy part)
