Examples of deductive reasoning in geometry?
Law of Syllogism If p->q and q->r are true conditionals, then p -> r is also true. (P)If people live in Manhattan, (q) then they live in New York. (q)If people live in New York, (r) then they live in the United States. Law of Detachment IF p-> q is a true conditional and p is true, then q is true. If you break an item in a store, you must pay for it. (P) Jill broke a vase in Potter's Gift Shop. (q) Jill must pay for the vase.
L is not as tall as P or R but is taller than S and Q Q being shorter than R S is shorter than R who is shorter than P who is taller than Q Who among P Q R and S is the shortest?
The answer is Q.
If p q and q r then p r.?
Unfortunately, the browser used for posting questions is hopelessly inadequate for mathematics: it strips away most symbols. All that we can see is "If p q and q r then p r.?". There is no operator between the variables. Some operators are transitive, others are not. In the case of the operator "is not equal to", the answer is that it depends. In the case of "is the parent of" the answer is no.
How to find the chord length of a curve with radius and 2 bearings given?
Suppose the radius is r and the bearings of the two points, P and Q are p and q respectively. Then the coordinates of P are [r*cos(p), r*sin(p)] and the coordinates of Q are [r*cos(q), r*sin(q)]. The distance between these two points can be found, using Pythagoras: d2 = (xq - xp)2 + (yq - yp)2 where xp is the x-coordinate of P, etc.
What is the Analogy for d is B as r is to p or T or q or P?
P
This statement is false brain teaser?
Let us consider "This statement is false." This quotation could also be read as "This, which is a statement, is false," which could by extent be read as "This is a statement and it is false." Let's call this quotation P. The statement that P is a statement will be called Q. If S, then R and S equals R; therefore, if Q, then P equals not-P (since it equals Q and not-P). Since P cannot equal not-P, we know that Q is false. Since Q is false, P is not a statement. Since P says that it is a statement, which is false, P itself is false. Note that being false does not make P a statement; all things that are statements are true or false, but it is not necessarily true that all things that are true or false are statements. In summary: "this statement is false" is false because it says it's a statement but it isn't.
Law of detachment?
Law of Detachment also known as Modus Ponens (MP) says that if p=>q is true and p is true, then q must be true. The Law of Syllogism is also called the Law of Transitivity and states: if p=>q and q=>r are both true, then p=>r is true.
If p q and q r then p r. Converse statement B.A syllogism C.Contrapositive statement D.Inverse statement?
Converse: If p r then p q and q rContrapositive: If not p r then not (p q and q r) = If not p r then not p q or not q r Inverse: If not p q and q r then not p r = If not p q or not q r then not p r

If p q and q r what is the relationship between the values p and r?
Ifp < q and q < r, what is the relationship between the values p and r? ________________p
How do you add and subtract rational numbers?
A rational number is a number of the form p/q where p and q are integers and q > 0.If p/q and r/s are two rational numbers thenp/q + r/s = (p*s + q*r) / (q*r)andp/q - r/s = (p*s - q*r) / (q*r)The answers may need simplification.
What is the proof of transitivity in logic NOT with truth table if p is q and if r is s and either p or r is true therefore either q or s is true?
Prove: [ P -> Q AND R -> S AND (P OR R) ] -> (Q OR S) -> NOT, --- 1. P -> Q ___ hypothesis 2. R -> S ___ hypothesis 3. P OR R ___ hypothesis 4. ~P OR Q ___ implication from hyp 1. 5. ~R OR S ___ implication from hyp 2 6. ~P OR Q OR S ___ addition to 4. 7. ~R OR Q OR S ___ addition to 5. 8. Let T == (Q OR S) ___ substitution 9. (~P OR T) AND (~R OR T) ___ Conjunction 6,7 10. T OR (~P AND ~R) ___ Distribution from 9 11. T OR ~(P OR R) ___ De Morgan's theorem 12. Let M == (P OR R) ___ substitution 13. (T OR ~M) AND M ___ conjunction 11, hyp 3 From there, you can use distribution to get (T AND M) OR (~M AND M). The contradiction goes away leaving you with T AND M, which can simplify to T.
P varies directly as q and inversely as r?
P=q/r* * * * *The correct answer is P = k*q/r where k is the constant of proportionality.
How do you add similar proper fraction?
Two fractions are similar if they have the same denominator.So if p/r and q/r are two such fractions, then p/r + q/r = (p+q)/r.
P and q represents r p q?
tan x
L is not as tall as P or R but is taller than S and Q Q being shorter than R S is shorter than R who is shorter than P who is taller than Q Who among P Q R and S is the shortest?
The answer is Q.
Is the sentence 'this statement is false' true or false?
Liar's Paradox:"This statement is false." is known as a liar's paradox. It is an illustration of inherent flaws in logic. Another example of a liar's paradox is: "The next statement is false. The previous statement is true." Why it is a paradoxIt is contradictory. If we say the statement is true, then this statement would have to be false since it was true. If we say it the statement is false, it will make the statement itself true, as that is false.Example in Popular CultureThe liar's paradox can be found in an episode of Star Trek where Captain Kirk defeats a "superior" computer by introducing a logic loop similar to the question's liar paradox. (Kirk: "Everything Mudd says is a lie." Harry Mudd : "I am lying.")LanguageIn semantics there is the issue of truth condition, where the meaning of a sentence is conveyed if the truth conditions for the sentence are understood. A truth condition is what makes for the truth of a statement in an inductive definition of truth. The semantic theory of truth was developed from the work of a Polish logician named Alfred Tarski who attempted to formulate a new theory of truth in order to solve the liars paradox. In doing so, Tarski developed the indefinability theorem, similar to Godel's incompleteness theorem. The Theory that the concept of truth for the sentences of language cannot be consistently defined within that language means that such paradoxes as "This statement is false" do not reveal the truth or falsity of the sentence by the words that have been used.Solution to the paradoxLet us consider "This statement is false." This quotation could also be read as "This, which is a statement, is false," which could by extent be read as "This is a statement and it is false." Let's call this quotation P. The statement that P is a statement will be called Q. If S, then R and S equals R; therefore, if Q, then P equals not-P (since it equals Q and not-P). Since P cannot equal not-P, we know that Q is false. Since Q is false, P is not a statement. Since P says that it is a statement, which is false, P itself is false. Note that being false does not make P a statement; all things that are statements are true or false, but it is not necessarily true that all things that are true or false are statements.In summary: "this statement is false" is false because it says it's a statement but it isn't.
