Y'all remember If-Then statements from Geometry? Maybe you'd rather drink hot sauce then remember Geometry, or maybe you're geeking out right now at the mention of it, thinking yes I do!! I loved Geometry, and Algebra for that matter. All the logic, rules, & equations. I could do proofs All. Day. Long. Once you learned all the rules, it was so simple. I loved the challenge of figuring out how all the pieces of the puzzle fit together to form the correct solution.
a+b=c
There's only one solution, & there's a way to find it. Every time. Numbers don't lie or change like the shifting shadows. 1+1 doesn't decide to equal 3 today because 2 is PMSing & they'd really rather not be around her. 1+1 will always equal 2.
In an If-Then Statement, the first part after the "if" is called the hypothesis, and the second part after the "then" is called the conclusion. The If-Then statement is considered true if the conclusion is true. Stay with me, I'm getting to the point...
I'm doing some personal research for an upcoming event and would like to know how you would complete this If-Then Statement:
