To find: Whether the stated conclusion is valid based on the given information, if not, write invalid.

Answer to Problem 2BCYP
The conclusion is invalid.
Explanation of Solution
Given: If a student turns in a permission slip, then the student can go on the field trip. Felipe turned in his permission slip.
Conclusion: Felipe can go on the field trip.
Calculation:
First identify the hypothesis
Let
Let
Now analyze the conclusion.
The given statement “Felipe turned in his permission slip” satisfies the conclusion, so
Use the Law of Detachment,
“if
Therefore, by the Law of Detachment does not apply. It is known that a conditional statement and its conclusion are true does not make the hypothesis true. So, the conclusion “Felipe can go on the field trip.

- Decomposition geometry: Mary is making a decorative yard space with dimensions as shaded in green (ΔOAB).Mary would like to cover the yard space with artificial turf (plastic grass-like rug). Mary reasoned that she could draw a rectangle around the figure so that the point O was at a vertex of the rectangle and that points A and B were on sides of the rectangle. Then she reasoned that the three smaller triangles resulting could be subtracted from the area of the rectangle. Mary determined that she would need 28 square meters of artificial turf to cover the green shaded yard space pictured exactly.arrow_forward7. 11 m 12.7 m 14 m S V=B₁+ B2(h) 9.5 m 16 m h+s 2 na 62-19 = 37 +, M h² = Bu-29arrow_forwardwhat would a of a interscribed angle be with an arc of 93 degrees and inside abgles of 111 and 98arrow_forward
