Are they equivalent?,Proof by contrapositive(反證法) P Q (Q) (P),Example 1If n2 is an even integer then n is an even integer.Proof:

8、If n is odd, then n = 2k + 1 and(2k + 1)2 = 4k2 + 4k + 1 = 2(2k2 + 2k) + 1 is odd. Thus by contrapositive, the proposition is correct.,Example 2,Given that p and m are real numbers such that p3+m3=2, prove thatp + m 2. Proof:Assume that p+m2, then p3+m3(2-m)3+m3=6m2-12m+8=6(m-1)2+2 2. Thus, by contr

9、apositive, p + m 2.,Proof by contradiction(歸謬法) (P) F,Example 3.3 Use the method of contradiction to prove that 2 is irrational. Proof: Suppose that 2 is not irrational, then 2 = p/q for some natural numbers p, q where (p, q) = 1. Since 2 =p2/q2, therefore 2q2=p2. This implies that 2|p2 and hence 2|

10、p. So p=2k for some integer k. Putting it back to 2q2=p2, 2q2=(2k)2 i.e. q2=2k2. Again, we have 2|qand 2|(p, q) , which is a contradiction.,Class work : Use the method of contradiction to prove that 3 is irrational.,Theorem (proved by Euclid): There are infinitely many prime numbers.,Proof: Assume t

11、here are only n prime numbers, say p1, p2, p3,pn. Now construct a new number p= p1p2p3pn + 1, then p is a new prime number since p is not divisible by pis and p pis. This leads to a contradiction that p1, p2, p3,pn are the only prime numbers. So there are infinitely many prime numbers.,Examples of p

Proof: Assume that a + b2 = c + d2 but bd, then 2 = (a c)/(d a), which is rational and hence is a contradiction. Thus b = d.,P.65, Q.6,Illust

13、rative Examples,If ABC is a acute triangle and ABC, prove that B 45.Proof:Assume that ABC is a acute triangle and B 45, then C 90 leads to a contradiction that ABC is a acute triangle. Thus,by the method of contradiction, B 45.,Illustrative Examples,4. If x=n and y=n+1, then x and y are relatively p

14、rime. Proof: Assume that x=n and y=n+1 and x and y have common factor other than 1, say f, then n=fg and n+1=fh. So 1 = f(h-g) and hence f=1, which is a contradiction. Thus the proposition is true. .,5. Given that a, b,c and d are real numbers and ad-bc=1, prove that a2+b2+c2+d2+ab+cd1.,Proof: Assum

15、e that a, b,c and d are real numbers and ad-bc=1, but a2+b2+c2+d2+ab+cd=1, then a2+b2+c2+d2+ab+cd=ad-bc. Multiplying it by 2, we get 2a2+2b2+2c2+2d2+2ab+2cd-2ad+2bc=0 i.e.(a+b)2+(b+c)2+(c+d)2+(a-d)2=0 a+b=b+c=c+d=a-d=0 i.e.a=b=c=d=0, which contradict to that ad-cd=1. Thus, by the method of contradic
