How can we write the following as a direct proof?
Name:
MATH 140 - Lecture 9 Homework
1. Show the following propositions using a direct proof.
(a) Proposition. If a is an odd integer, then a² + 3a + 5 is odd.
Section:
(b) Proposition. Suppose a, b E Z. If alb then a²b².
(c) Proposition. f(x) =
2²
is an odd function.
(d) Use the identity sin² (x) + cos² (x) = 1, to show the identity tan² (x) + 1 = sec² (x).
