| postulate | principles that are accepted as true without proof |
| negation | denial of a statement |
| if-then statement | if p, then q |
| converse | if q, then p |
| inverse | if ~ p, then ~ q |

| inductive reasoning | looking at a number of specific examples to reach a conjecture |
| deductive reasoning | using a rule to make a conclusion |
| Law of Detachment | If "if p, then q" is a true conditional and p is true, then q is true |
| Law of Syllogism | If "if p, then q" and "if q, then r" are true condtionals, then if p then r is true |
| Reflexive Property | for every # a, a = a |
| Symmetric Property | For all #'s a and b, if a = b, then b = a |
| Transitive Property | For all #'s a, b, and c, if a = b and b = c, then a = c |
| Supplement Theorem | If two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary angles. |
