Indirect ProofsChapter 6 Lesson 3
![Page 21: Inequalities I n Geometry](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5681488b550346895db5a0c8/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What Is An Indirect Proof?
A proof where you assume temporarily that the desired conclusion is not true. Then you reason logically until you reach a contradiction of the hypothesis or some other known fact.
![Page 22: Inequalities I n Geometry](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5681488b550346895db5a0c8/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
How Do You Write an Indirect Proof?
1. Assume temporarily that the conclusion is not true.
2. Reason logically until you reach a contradiction of a known fact.
3. Point out that the temporary assumption must be false, and that the conclusion must then be true.
![Page 23: Inequalities I n Geometry](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5681488b550346895db5a0c8/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Example 1Given: n is an integer and n^2 is even
Prove: n is even
Proof
Assume temporarily that n is not even. Then n is odd and
n^2 =n x n
= odd x odd x= odd
But this contradicts the given information that n^2 is even. Therefore the temporary assumption that n is not even must be false. It follows that n is even.
![Page 24: Inequalities I n Geometry](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5681488b550346895db5a0c8/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Example 2 Prove that the bases of a trapezoid have unequal lengths.
Given: Trap. PQRS with bases PQ and SR
Prove: PQ ≠ SR
Proof:
Assume temporarily the PQ=SR. We know that PQ ||SR by the definition of a trapezoid. Since quadrilateral PQRS has two sides that are both congruent and parallel, it must be a parallelogram, and PS must be parallel to QR. But this contradicts the fact that, by definition, trapezoid PQRS can have only one pair of parallel sides. The temporary assumption that PQ=SR must be false. It follows that PQ ≠ SR.

Theorem 6-2 If one side of a triangle is longer than a
second side, then the angle opposite the first side is larger than the angle opposite the second side.

Theorem 6-3 If one angle of a triangle is larger than a
second angle, then the side opposite the first angle is longer than the side opposite the second angle.

The Triangle Inequality
(Theorem 6-4) The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.

SAS Inequality Theorem
If two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle, but the included angle of the first triangle is larger than the included angle of the second, then the third side of the first triangle is longer than the third side of the second triangle.

SSS Inequality Theorem
If two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle, but the third side of the first triangle is longer than the third side of the second, hen the included angle of the first triangle is larger than the included angle of the second.
