Answer 2

Answers:

17. B

18. B

Step-by-step explanation:

17. We need to understand what an indirect proof is. In an indirect proof, you prove a statement by showing that the negation of the statement is false.

The "then" part of the conditional is the "to prove" statement.

In an indirect proof, we assume the opposite of what we want to prove, this is also called proof by contradiction.

So if we need to prove angle A is not an obtuse angle, we will assume it is and then use the proof format to show that angle A cannot be obtuse.

The answer is B: Assume angle A is an obtuse angle

18. This question is asking us to use an indirect proof again. The "then" part of the statement is "KL > JK" and is the "to prove" statement.

We need the opposite of this, which would be assuming that KL < JK.

The answer is B: Assume that KL < JK

I'm always happy to help :)
