When you from general ideas and rules based on your experiences observations you call that from of reasoning?
Empirical reasoning.
What is accepted without proof in a logical system?
Axioms and Posulates -apex
How different was Rene Descartes principle of reasoning with that of bacon?
Descartes reasoning was based on deriving principles that were then the premise of deductive reasoning. Bacon, on the other hand, used empirical observations that were then used for inductive reasoning.
What is a conclusion based on reasoning rather than the observation?
fallacy
What type of reasoning do scientists use when looking at problems?
Scientists use deductive reasoning and inductive reasoning when looking at problems. Deductive reasoning involves making specific conclusions based on general principles or theories. Inductive reasoning involves making generalizations or theories based on specific observations or evidence. Both types of reasoning are important in forming hypotheses, making predictions, and drawing conclusions in scientific research.
Why do you do proofs in geometry?
You start out with things that you know and use them to make logical arguments about what you want to prove. The things you know may be axioms, or may be things you already proved and can use. The practice of doing Geometry proofs inspires logical thinking, organization, and reasoning based on facts. Each statement must be supported with a valid reason, which could be a given fact, definitions, postulates, or theorems.

When are you ever going to use theorems from geometry?
Geometry has a variety of applications from engineering to the physical sciences. It is also used in construction and art. However, most would probably never use a theorem from geometry directly. So why do we study the theorems of geometry? It has to do with learning to think clearly and critically. Theorems are deduced based on axioms and rules of logic. Learning to prove the theorems or even just understand them can do much to increase your reasoning skills. With better reasoning skills you can distinguish good arguments from bad ones and increase your problem solving ability.
what kind of reasoning can lead to stereotyping if based on too few examples?
Inductive reasoning. :)
What type of scientific reasoning relies on gathering and evaluating evidence?
objective means that you make decisions and draw conclusions based on evidence, subjective means that personal feelings have entered into a decison or conclusion.
What is type of reasoning where conclusions are based on patterns you observe called?
inductive reasoning
