True or false? To begin an indirect proof, you assume the converse of what you intend to prove is true.

djyliett [7]4 years ago

Answer:

The statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin an indirect proof, you assume the converse of what you intend to prove is true. This is false.

Rather the correct answer is that to begin an indirect proof, you assume the inverse of what you intend to prove is true.

The converse can be either true or false, depending on what the original statement is, so assuming the converse is pointless.

Can someone help? I hate math so much lol I don’t understand
marishachu [46]

Answer:

±6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the mathematical expression;

√36 < √42 < √49

But, √36 = 6 * 6 = 6²

√49 = 7 * 7 = 7²

Simplifying further, we would substitute the new values respectively;

±[6] < √42 < ±[7]

Therefore, evaluating √36 is equal to ±6.

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

12.5 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of tile = 2.5 in

Base of tile = 2*height of tile = 2*2.5 = 5 in

Length of other side of tile = 2.5 in

Required:

Area of the tile

SOLUTION:

Area of the tile = area of parallelogram

All we need to calculate the area of the tile, is the base and the height.

Area of parallelogram = base × height

Area of tile = 5 × 2.5 = 12.5 in²
