1.in an indirect proof to prove that m<p > m<q, what is an assumption you must make about m<p and m<q?
2. to prove indirectly that the base angles of an obtuse isosceles triangle must be acute, what is the best first step?A. assume that the vertex angle is acute
B. assume that the base angles are obtuse
C. assume that the base angles are right angles
D. assume that the base angles are not acute
3. prove by contraction/write an indirect proof (preferably 2 column)
given: triangle ABC with exterior <1, adjacent <2, and remote interiors <3 and <4.
prove: m<1 does not = m<4
4.prove by contraction/write an indirect proof
given: equilateral triangle, "triangle" WXY
prove: <X is not a right angle
