Geometry Mr. Stricker
My Rules • (Interact) Be Prepared to “Share the Math” • (You can talk) Let’s Have Productive Discussions • Ask questions (Even when you understand) • No electronic distractions or others (we have limited time) • Let’s be respectful toward one another (part of learning)
What’s the Big Idea? • Think about this with your partner: • If I draw three lines on a coordinate plane, do they always form a triangle?
Algebra Proofs Q.E.D - quod eratdemonstrandum O.T.I.IS !
When you leave here today • You will be able to recognize “if-then” conditional statements • You will be able to construct “if-then” conditional statements • You will be able to construct other related conditional statements • You will be able to find the truth value of conditional statements • SO YOU CAN GET READY FOR GEOMETRIC PROOFS
What’s a conditional statement? • Ifyou are in the classroom, thenyou are in the school building • IF: you are in the classroom • THEN: you are in the school building • An “if-then” statement
What’s a conditional statement? • Triangles have three sides • IF: If a figure is a triangle (hypothesis) • THEN: It has three sides (conclusion) • An “if-then” statement
What’s a conditional statement? “If B is between A and C, then AB + BC = AC” “Ifpoint B is between A and C, thenAB + BC = AC” A B C
TRUE OR FALSE? 90º A 0º
Constructing conditional statements Example: Dogs have four legs In your Groups/pairs • Tiggles are talking • I will take my umbrella when I go in the rain • I will make a three point shot when I play basketball • When I finish my homework, I will play on the computer
