1. 1 Patterns and Inductive Reasoning
Learning Target • I can find a pattern using inductive reasoning.
• Inductive Reasoning – Reasoning that is based on patterns you observe. If you observe a pattern in a sequence, you can use Inductive Reasoning to tell what the next term in the sequence will be.
• Conjecture – a conclusion you reach using Inductive Reasoning.
Examples • Find the pattern to come up with the next two terms in the sequence • EX 1) 3, 6, 12, 24, ___ • EX 2) 1, 2, 4, 7, 11, 16, 22, ___
You try some •
• Patterns can be with Shapes, too. EX:
• Counterexample – An example in which a conjecture is incorrect…you are proving a statement false.
In your groups • Find a counterexample to show that the conjecture is false • The product of two positive numbers is greater than either number *remember product means multiply
In your groups, The sum of two numbers is greater then either number. *sum means to add Provide a counterexample that would make this statement be false.
