Geometry; 9/27

We spent time today in class reviewing the different types of questions that will appear on tomorrows quiz.  From algebra proofs to geometric proofs to conditional and biconditional statements, the students had chances to practice each skill in class before getting started on the review sheet.  Chapter 2 quiz is tomorrow.

Assignment:  Chapter 2 Quiz review sheet


Review Sheet answers

Using Deductive Reasoning

1.  hypothesis:  line AB intersects line CD at X
     conclusion:  A, X, and C are coplanar
2.  Hypothesis:  I finish my homework
     conclusion:  I can ride my bicycle
3.  initial statement:  false
     Converse:  If M is midpoint of segment AB, then AM = MB;  converse is true
4.  transitive prop. =
5.  reflexive prop. =
6.  substitution prop. =
7.  symmetric prop. =
8.  addition prop. =
9.  angle bisector theorem
10.  segment addition postulate
11.  angle addition postulate
12.  midpoint theorem
13.  definition of angle bisector

Algebra proof #5                                                        

-3(x + 2) = 16 - x            given                                  
-3x - 6 = 16 - x               distributive prop                
-6 = 16 + 2x                    addition prop. =                
-22 = 2x                          subtraction prop. =            
-11 = x                            division prop. =                

 Algebra proof  #7

6(x - 6) = x(16 - 7)     given
6x - 36 = 16x - 7x      distributive prop.
6x - 36 = 9x                combine like terms
-36 = 3x                       subtraction prop. =
-12 = x                         division prop. =
