how to you begin an indirect proof
assume that what you want to prove is not true. if this temporary assumption leads to a contradiction of a known fact, than your temporary assumption must be false and what you with to prove true must be true.
-
what is the shortest segment from a point to a line
a perpendicular segment
-
what is sss triangle inequality theorem
if two sides of a triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle but the the third side in the first is larger than the same in the second, the included angle of the two congruent sides of the first triangle is greater than that of the second
-
what is the sas triangle inequality therem
if two triangles have two congruent sides but the included angle of the first is larger than the included angle of the second, than the third side of the first is larger than the second.
