 Vocabulary
• Conjecture: An unproven statement
that is based on observations.

• You use inductive reasoning when

you find a pattern in specific cases
and then write a conjecture for the
general case.
 Conjecture/
Counterexamples
• Use these sums of odd integers:
3+7=10, 1+7=8, 17+21=38
Conjecture: The sum of any two
odd integers is__ even _______.
 Vocabulary
• Counterexample: An example that
proves a conjecture is false.
*Example:
•Conjecture: The sum of two
numbers is always greater than
the larger number.
Counterexample: -3 + -2 = -5
 Conjecture/
Counterexamples
• Show the conjecture is false by
finding a counterexample.
–If the product of two numbers is
positive, then the two numbers
must both be positive.

-8 * -2 = 16
 Vocabulary
Conditional statement:
a logical statement that has two
parts, a hypothesis and a conclusion.
When a conditional statement is written
in if-then form the “if” part contains the
hypothesis and the “then” part contains
the conclusion.

If hypothesis, then conclusion.

Conditional Statements

Rewrite statement in if-then form:

Guitar players are musicians

If you are a guitar player then

you are a musician.
 Conditional Statement

Rewrite the statement in if-then form:

An even number is divisible by two.

If a number is even, then it is divisible by

two.
 Converse
The converse of a conditional statement
is formed by switching the conclusion
and the hypothesis.

Conditional Statement:
If you are a guitar player then you are a
musician.
Converse:
If you are a musician then you are a guitar
player.
 Converse Example

Write the converse of:

If a number is even, then it is divisible by

two.

Converse: If a number is divisible by

two, then it is an even number.
 Inverse
The inverse of a conditional statement
is when you negate the hypothesis and
the conclusion. (Turn them into nots)

Conditional Statement:
If you are a guitar player then you are a
musician.
Inverse:
If you are not a guitar player than you are not a
musician.
 Inverse Example

Write the Inverse of:

If a number is even, then it is divisible by

two.

Inverse: If a number is not even,

then it is not divisible by two.
 Contrapositive
The contrapositive of a conditional
statement is when you negate the
hypothesis and conclusion of the
converse statement.
Converse Statement:
If you are a musician, then you are a guitar
player.
Contrapositive:
If you are not a musician, then you are not a
guitar player
 Contrapositive Example

Write the contrapositive of:

If a number is divisible by two, then

it is an even number.
Contrapositive: If a number is not
divisible by two, then it is not an
even number.
