How did you know what came next? We used inductive reasoning, which is arriving at a conclusion
(called a conjecture) based on a set of observations; looking for a pattern and applying it as a rule.

We can’t use this type of reasoning to prove something to be true, but we can use it to disprove a
conjecture.

Counterexample: ___________________________________________________________

Examples: use a counterexample to disprove the statement.

1. All supplementary pairs of angles are linear pairs.

2. When I subtract one number from another, the difference is always smaller than the larger
number.

3. If x 2 = 4 , then x = 2

Symbols Used in Logic
Logical statements and expressions are often written using symbols to represent words. We will use
the following symbols in this chapter:

p, q, r, s,
Symbols used to represent statements such as hypothesis and conclusions
t, ect


~ ∴

Example: let p represent “Geometry is boring” and q represent “Geometry is difficult”.

Translate the following into symbolic form:

 Geometry is not boring ___________________________

 Geometry is boring and Geometry is difficult ___________________________

 Geometry is not boring or Geometry is difficult ___________________________

Example: let r represent “I save my money” and s represent “I buy a car”.

Translate the following from symbolic form:

 r ∨  s ___________________________________________________________

 r → s ____________________________________________________________

  r →  s _________________________________________________________

 s ↔ r ____________________________________________________________

 ∴ r _______________________________________________________________

 Conditional Statements

Conditional Statement: a logical statement with 2 parts, a _____________and a ___________

If – Then: “if” part starts the ________________and the “then” part introduces the _____________.

True/False Conditional Statements

 Is the statement above true? Why or why not?

 True conditional statement:

 False conditional statement:

Examples: write 1 true conditional statement and 1 false conditional statement. Circle the hypothesis on
each and underline the conclusion.

True
Conditional

False
Conditional

Translating Conditional Statements into “If, Then” Form

Some statements are conditional statements in disguise:

 All birds have feathers.

If, Then Form: _____________________________________________________

 I’m watching baseball if it’s a Sunday afternoon.

If, Then Form: _____________________________________________________

 Linear pairs of angles are supplementary.

If, Then Form: _____________________________________________________

A VENN DIAGRAM is a drawing that uses shapes to represent sets of objects and the
relationship between various sets. Venn Diagrams are useful in explaining conditional
statements and showing logic visually.
Venn diagrams are useful to show different relationships between sets, including when all,
some or none of the elements overlap.

All elements in P are also Some elements in P are Sets P and Q have no

Deductive Reasoning: uses facts, definitions, accepted properties and laws of logic to form a
logical argument

Inductive Reasoning: uses specific examples and patterns to form a conjecture

Recall: In logic, we use symbols to represent statements. In the following examples, the letters p, q,
and r are intended to represent specific statements.

Two Laws of Deductive Reasoning:

Law of Detachment – Law of Syllogism –

If the hypothesis of a specific conditional is true, If the hypothesis implies conclusion and the conclusion implies
then the conclusion is also true a second conclusion, then the hypothesis implies the second
conclusion

1. If _____________________ 1. If ___________________

2. and ___________________ 2. and _________________

3. then ___________________ 3. then _________________

*you state the conclusion at the end *you make a new “if-then” statement at the end

Example: Example:
If an angle measures more than 90°, then If you wear the school colors, then you have school
it is not acute. spirit

m ∠ ABC = 120°. If you have school spirit, then the team feels great.

∴ ____________________________ ∴ ________________________________________

Practice: Find a conclusion that will make the arguments valid, if possible. State the Law used. If the argument
is invalid, state INVALID.
