    Uses facts to come to a conclusion
  28. Inductive Reasoning
    Uses a pattern to determine a conclusion
  29. counter Examples
    • Prove the statement is false
    • (ex. All polygons are squares. Prove wrong: Rectangles etc)
  30. Biconditional statement
    • If and only if
    • (ex. If a polygon has three sides than it is a triangle. BICONDITIONAL: A polygon has three sides if and only if {iff} it is a triangle.
