Key Topics to Revise

1

Mathematical Statements

  • A mathematical statement is a sentence that can be judged as either true or false, but not both
  • Statements must have unambiguous meaning - everyone should interpret them the same way
  • Sentences that are questions, commands, or contain ambiguous terms are NOT mathematical statements
2

Reasoning in Mathematics

  • Deductive reasoning: Drawing logical conclusions from known facts and previously proven statements
  • Inductive reasoning: Looking for patterns and making educated guesses (conjectures)
  • Mathematical reasoning must be based on logic, not just observation or intuition
3

Theorems, Conjectures, and Axioms

  • Axiom: A mathematical statement accepted as true without proof (self-evident truth)
  • Conjecture: A statement believed to be true based on evidence but not yet proven
  • Theorem: A mathematical statement that has been logically proven to be true
4

Mathematical Proofs

  • A mathematical proof is a logical sequence of statements that establishes the truth of a theorem
  • Each step in a proof must be justified by axioms, previously proven theorems, or logical rules
  • Proofs provide certainty - unlike verification with examples, proofs establish truth for ALL cases
