What is a statement that is believed to be true?
a conjecture
What is a perpendicular bisector concurrency conjecture?
The Perpendicular bisector concurrency conjecture is the circumcenter
Write a conjecture about the product of two odd numbers?
My conjecture (an opinion based on incomplete information) is that the product of two odd numbers is 22. There is no requirement for a conjecture to be true.
What is a conjecture that is proven?
theorem
An example that proves that a conjecture or statement is false?
Counter-example
Is a single conjecture that can be tested?
Hypothesis
What is A single conjecture that can be tested called?
It is a hypothesis.
What is an informed conjecture that is capable of being tested and potentially falsified by experiment or data?

What conjecture can you make about the sum of the first 46 positive odd numbers?
Any conjecture you want; a conjecture is merely an opinion or conclusion based on given information. Whether the conjecture is true or not is left to be proved (if provable at all). One opinion (conjecture) could be that the sum is "blue". It's a totally nonsense conjecture, but its a conjecture none the less. A sensible conjecture might be that the sum is odd. This can be tested and found to be true or false by summing the first 46 odd numbers (a mechanical method that is fairly easy in this case), or by the mathematical manipulation of axioms via algebra (a mathematical proof).
What is the future tense of conjecture?
The future tense of "conjecture" is "will conjecture."
What disproves a conjecture?
a conjecture is disproved if it is shown to be false. this can be done by providing a single concrete example (e.g. with actual numbers, functions, etc) that shows the conjecture's premise does not necessarily lead to its conclusion. alternatively, a conjecture could be shown to be false (i.e. disproved) by demonstrating that IF it were true then a logical consequence would be a clearly wrong statement (e.g. 2 + 2 =5)

What is an example of a TRUE conjecture?
The Poincaré Conjecture.
What shows that a conjecture is false?
A conjecture should be testable. You test it and if it fails the test, it is a false conjecture.
What is the single factor tested through experimentation?

What conjecture can you make about the sum of the first 10 positive even numbers?
One possible conjecture is that their sum is 27. The conjecture is patently false, but that does not stop it being a conjecture.
Make a conjecture about the sum of the first 25 positive even numbers?
My conjecture is that the sum is 67. A conjecture does not have to be true, or even plausible. You should be able to test it. If it is found to be true then in is no longer a conjecture, if it is found to be false, it is rejected - and so no longer a conjecture. If it cannot be proved either way, it remains a conjecture.
