    I'm currently studying Discrete Mathematics right now on my own. These proofs are a good summary of what I've been doing. Right now I'm working through the How To Prove It Book by Daniel J. Velleman. I find your channel to be very helpful. Thank you for your videos!👋

    In the first example of proof by contradiction, "If a is rational and ab is irrational, then b is irrational"
    Isn't starting with the assumption b is rational and coming to the conclusion ab is rational instead of irrational, same as proof by contrapositive?
    a is rational and ab is irrational -> b is irrational (P -> Q)
    b is rational -> a is rational and ab is rational (NOT Q -> NOT P)

    Would an If and only if case require a proof by contrapositive and a direct proof?

    • @Trevtutor
      @Trevtutor  Рік тому +2

      You’ll be proving both P -> Q and Q -> P so you yes could do it with a direct proof and one by contra position.

      Assume k=2 then
      K+k= putting the value of k
      2+2=4
      And
      K+1=putting the value of k
      2+1=3
      Hence k+k > k+1

    good video but Im ngl idk how you proved these, If you could show your answer actually works that would be great. For a^2 not divisible by 4, if you could show how your final proof actually proves it is then that would be great.

      because of the *2, it'd technically still be right but to keep the scale consistent, you multiple the k by 2 as well
