Chapter 1 Review

Well in chapter 1 we started off by learning that when saying that when objects are the same they are congruent. __~ __ ~
Such as AB = CD or <1=<2

When we are comparing two numbers, values or lengths we say that they are equal.
Such as AB=CD or m<1=m<2

We also learned about a Postulate vs. a Theorum
A postulate(or axiom) is a statement that is accepted as true without proof.
A theorum is a statement that can be proven to be true

Conditional Statements:
Conditional- p→q
Where p is the hypothesis and q is the conclusion.
An example of this is the conditional statement that if you live in Birmingham this
implies that you live in Michigan
Converse- q→p
Such as if you live in Michigan, you live in Birmingham, which is sometimes true.
Inverse- ~p→~q
Such as if you don't live in Birmingham, you don't live in Michigan, which is also
sometimes true
Contrapositive- ~q→~p
Such as if you don't live in Michigan, this implies you don't live in Birmingham, which
is true. If the conditional statement is true, this means that the contrapositive is true.

Some of the other things we learned were that points on the same line are called collinear

We learned the triangle inequality theorum, which statest that the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be larger than the third.

Thank you all for letting me put this off until the very end, I hope you enjoy this blog post.
