What is the proof for the converse of this statement:
Given A exists on line l, and B does not exist on line l, then P exists on line AB(P does not equal A) --> P,B on the same side of line l.
What is the proof for the converse of this statement: Given A exists on line l,...
2) (i) State the converse of the Alternate Interior Angle Theorem in Neutral Geometry. (ii) Prove that if the converse of the Alternate Interior Angle Theorem is true, then all triangles have zero defect. [Hint: For an arbitrary triangle, ABC, draw a line through C parallel to side AB. Justify why you can do this.] 5) Consider the following statements: I: If two triangles are congruent, then they have equal defect. II: If two triangles are similar, then they have...
4. (a) Supply proof of the Menelaus Theorem concerning a transversal line L cutting the sides of ΔABC at points X,Y,Z respectively. (Hint) Drop perpendicular line segments from A, B, C to L and use similar triangles b)Centuries after Menelaus, Ceva discovered the Theorem that if P,Q, R are points on BC, CA and AB respectively so that AP, BQ, CR meet at a single point K, thern AR BP co RB PC QA Prove Ceva's theorem and its converse,...
7. (10) Find the flaw in the following attempted proof of the parallel postulate by Wolfgang Bolyai (Hungarian, 1775 - 1856) (see Fig. 3). Given any point P not on a line l, construct a line 1' parallel to through P in the usual way: drop a perpendicular PQ to / and construct /" perpendicular to PQ. Let I" be any line through P distinct from l'. To see that /" intersects I, pick a point A on PQ between...
a. Define what it means for two logical statements to be equivalent b. If P and Q are two statements, show that the statement ( P) л (PvQ) is equivalent to the statement Q^ P c. Write the converse and the contrapositive of the statement "If you earn an A in Math 52, then you understand modular arithmetic and you understand equivalence relations." Which of these d. Write the negation of the following statement in a way that changes the...
For the given direct statement, write the indicated related statement (converse, inverse, or contrapositive). q--> (p ∧ r) (contrapositive)
