What is the definition of theorem?

Theorems are important statements that are proved.


With regard to mathematics What is an accepted statement of fact that is used to prove other statement?

An accepted statement of fact that is used to prove other statements in mathematics is called a "theorem." Theorems are established based on previously proven statements, known as axioms or postulates, and can be further supported by proofs that demonstrate their validity. These foundational principles serve as the building blocks for mathematical reasoning and problem-solving.


In a geometric proof what can be used to explain a statement?

Axioms and logic (and previously proved theorems).


What In a mathematical system a proven statement is called?

A theorem (or lemma).

What is typically the first step of an indirect proof?

The first step of an indirect proof is to assume that the statement you want to prove is false. This assumption leads to a logical contradiction when combined with established facts or previously proven statements. By demonstrating that this assumption leads to an impossible or contradictory conclusion, the original statement can be concluded as true. This method is commonly used in mathematical proofs to establish the validity of a theorem or proposition.


What is the difference between a theorem and property?

A theorem is a statement that has been proven on the basis of previously established statements. Property is something that needs no proof, such as a variable "a" in an equation will be equal to all other "a"s in the equation.


What is a statement that cannot be proven?

A statement that cannot be proven is known as an unprovable statement, such as "There is life on other planets" or "There is a higher power controlling the universe." These types of statements lack empirical evidence or a method for verification.


True or false A theorem is a statement that is deductively proven to be true.?

False. It is proven to be true IF some axioms are assumed to be true. A mathematical statement can be proven to be true only after some axioms have been assumed.


What is dispute of fact?

A dispute is gainsaying a statement. Facts are provable statements to dispute them is to show they are not proven.


True or false a theroem is a statement that can be easily proved?

Neither. A theorem is a proven mathematical statement. This says nothing about how easily it can be proven. e.g. the Pythagorean Theorem is easily proven, but Fermat's Last Theorem is extremely difficult to prove.


What is difference in axiom and postulate?

Theorem: A Proven Statement. Postulate: An Accepted Statement without Proof. They mean similar things. A postulate is an unproven statement that is considered to be true; however a theorem is simply a statement that may be true or false, but only considered to be true if it has been proven.
