1. Suppose ne Z. If n is odd, then n² is odd.
2. Suppose ne Z. If n² is odd, then n is odd.
3. Prove that V2 is irrational.
Exercises for Chapter 6
A. Use the method of proof by contradiction to prove the following statements. (In
each case, you should also think about how a direct or contrapositive proof would
work. You will find in most cases that proof by contradiction is easier.)

4. Prove that √6 is irrational.
5. Prove that √3 is irrational.
6. If a, b e Z, then a²-4b-20.
7. If a, b e Z, then a²-4b-30.
8. Suppose a, b, c e Z. If a² + b² = c², then a or b is even.
9. Suppose a, b E R. If a is rational and ab is irrational, then b is irrational.
