6
Q

branch of mathematics in which arithmetical operations and formal manipulations are applied to abstract symbols rather than specific numbers. It is the study of the mathematical symbols and the rules, and it involves the manipulation of these mathematical symbols.

Q

can be thought of a getting a mirror image. It has a line of reflection or mirror line where the distance between the image and the mirror line is the same as that between the original figure and the mirror line.”

A

reflection (or a flip)

20
Q

has a point about which the rotation is made and an angle that says how far to rotate.”

A

rotation (or a turn)

21
Q

is a transformation which changes the size of an object”

22
Q

Transformations which leave the dimensions of the object and its image unchanged are called

A

rigid transformations, or isometric transformations, or isometries

23
Q

Reflections, translations, rotations, and combinations of these three

A

transformations are “rigid transformations”

24
Q

Meaning of isometry in greek

A

“iso” : Greek for “the same”
“metry/metria” : Greek for “measure”

25
Is a mapping that preserves distance
Isometry of the plane
26
A reflection followed by a translation or vice versa is called a glide reflection
Glide Reflection
27
begins with one or zero. Each of the subsequent number is the sum of the two preceding numbers;
Fibonacci sequence
28
The most prominent of these is the Fibonacci spiral on a
Natilus shell

31
is the formal systematic study of the principles of valid inference and correct reasoning.
Logic
32
is defined as a declarative sentence that is either true or false, but not both simultaneously.
proposition or statement
33
are made up of propositions. The reasoning used in an argument may be correct or not.
Arguments
34
is a proposition that is true under all circumstances
Tautology
35
is a proposition that is always false.
A contradiction or an absurdity
36
is a proposition which is neither a tautology nor a contradiction.
Contingency
37
. The conditional statement Q →P is called the ______of the implication P →Q
converse
38
2. The conditional statement Q →P is the ______ of the implication P →Q
contrapositive
39
The conditional statement P →Q is the of the implication of P →Q
inverse
40
. An assertion which contains at least one proposition variable is called a
Propositional form
41
represented by a lowercase or capital letter in the English alphabet denotes an arbitrary proposition with an unspecified truth value.
propositional variable
42
is a statement that is a refusal or denial of some other statement.
Negation
43
of a true statement is false, and the negation of a false statement is true.
Negation
44
is false when at least one of the conjuncts P or Q is false. When both P and Q are true, then their conjunction is true.
Conjunction
45
The proposition P Q is true when at least one of the propositions P or Q is true. It is false when both P and Q are false.
Disfunction
46
The promise is broken in situation 2 where the premise is satisfied but the conclusion of the statement is not fulfilled. Only then will the implication become false.
Conditional
