Across
- 3. statements are listed in a logical order in the left column and corresponding reasons in the right column until a desired conclusion is reached.
- 4. A conditional statement and its converse can be combined into one statement called a biconditional statement. For a statement with a hypothesis 𝑝 and a conclusion 𝑞, the biconditional statement can be written in the form “𝑝 if and only if 𝑞,” which can be expressed as “𝑝 iff 𝑞” or 𝑝𝑞.
- 6. describes the meaning of a word. In mathematics, definitions can be written as true biconditional statements.
- 9. states that if two angles are complements to the same angle (or to congruent angles), then they are congruent.
- 10. a statement that you can prove. Once you have proven a theorem, it can be used as a reason in later proofs.
- 12. states that the sides of congruence statement can be interchanged.
- 13. states that any figure is congruent to itself.
Down
- 1. states that if two angles are supplements to the same angle (or to congruent angles), then they are congruent.
- 2. states that if two figures are congruent to a third, then they are congruent to each other.
- 5. states that all right angles are congruent.
- 7. states that two angles that form a linear pair are supplementary.
- 8. states that vertical angles are congruent.
- 11. an argument used to show that a conclusion is true. Proofs use given information, definitions, properties, postulates, and theorems to justify each step in the reasoning process used to reach a conclusion.
