Another name for an indirect proof is a proof by contradiction. In this method, the assumption of the opposite of what you want to prove is made, leading to a logical contradiction. This contradiction implies that the original statement must be true.
Another name for an indirect proof is a "proof by contradiction." In this method, one assumes the opposite of what is to be proved, leading to a logical contradiction, thereby establishing the truth of the original statement. This technique is commonly used in mathematics and logic to demonstrate the validity of propositions.

An indirect proof is another name for a proof by contradiction. This is where the original premise is assumed to be false and then attempted to be proven. Because this proof turns out to be false, the original premise is then true.

An indirect proof is a proof by contradiction.
contradiction
Proof in which one assumes the opposite of what you have to prove is indirect proof. In indirect proof a person can draw a conclusion from assuming the opposite is true and then find a conclusion.

TrueIt is true that the body of an indirect proof you must show that the assumption leads to a contradiction. In math a proof is a deductive argument for a mathematical statement.
