  1. 2.3 Deductive Reasoning Deductive means “a systematic method of deriving conclusions”

  2. 2-3 Deductive Reasoning • You will use symbolic notation to represent logical statements. • You will learn to form conclusions by applying the laws of logic to the statements

  3. Symbolic Notation prepresents the hypothesis qrepresents the conclusion → is read as “implies” ~ represents negation If p then q can be written as p →q Inverse statement ~p → ~q Bi-conditional statement p ↔ q

  4. How would you represent each of the following “symbolically?” Conditional Converse Inverse Contrapositive

  5. Deductive Reasoning • Deductive reasoning uses facts, definitions, and accepted properties in a logical order to write a logical argument. • Inductive reasoning uses previous examples and patterns to make a conjecture.

  6. Laws of Deductive Reasoning • Law of Detachment: If p →q is a true conditional statement and p is true, that is, the situation described in the hypothesis occurs, then q is true, that is, the conditional situation also occurs. If it snows 10 feet, then there is no school. It just snowed 10 feet, so I can conclude there is no school.

  7. Laws of Deductive Reasoning • Law of Syllogism: If p →q and q →r are true conditional statement, then p →r is true p: John gets a C q: John passes the test r: John plays football If John gets a C, then john plays football.

  8. Write the Converse, Inverse, and Contrapositive in symbolic notation. • C. Statement: If it is Wednesday, then I am not home. • Converse: If I am not at home, then it is Wednesday. • Inverse: If it is not Wednesday, then I am home. • Contrapositive: If I am home, then it is not Wednesday.

  9. Write the Converse, Inverse, and Contrapositive (include symbolic notation). • If 3 measures 90, then 3 is not acute. • If 3 is not acute, then 3 measures 90. • If 3 does not measure 90, then 3 is acute. • If 3 is acute, then 3 does not measure 90.
