Lesson 5.6
Deductive Proofs
pp. 189-195
Objectives:
1. To define and apply four methods of
deductive proof.
2. To identify the steps required for a
valid deductive proof.
3. To recognize converse and inverse
fallacies.
Deductive reasoning can be split into
two major sections: proof by direct
argument and proof by contradiction.
Examples of direct argument proofs
include:
1. Law of Deduction
2. Modus ponens
3. Modus tollens
4. Transitivity
Definition
The Law of Deduction is a
method of deductive proof
with the following symbolic
form.
Definition
The Law of Deduction
p (assumed)
q1
q2
qn (statements known to be true)
r (deduced from statements above)
pr (conclusion)
Definition
Modus ponens is a method
of deductive proof with the
following symbolic form.
Premise 1: pq
Premise 2: p
Conclusion: q
Definition
Modus tollens is a method of
deductive proof with the
following symbolic form.
Premise 1: pq
Premise 2: ~q
Conclusion: ~p
Definition
Transitivity is a method of
deductive proof with the
following symbolic form.
Premise 1: pq
Premise 2: qr
Conclusion: pr
EXAMPLE 2 Classify this
argument.
Premise 1: If man is sinful, then he
must die (Rom. 6:23).
Premise 2: Man is sinful (Rom. 3:23).
Conclusion: Man must die (second
death; Rev. 21:8).
Modus Ponens; valid
If it rains today, the ball game will be
canceled.
It rained.
the ball game was cancelled.
1. Law of deduction
2. Modus ponens
3. Modus tollens
4. Transitivity
If we eat carrots, then our eyesight
will be good.
Our eyesight is not good.
we didn’t eat our carrots.
1. Law of deduction
2. Modus ponens
3. Modus tollens
4. Transitivity

~p~q
~r
1. Law of deduction
2. Modus ponens
3. Modus tollens
4. Transitivity
A  B
B  C
C is a right angle
A is a right angle
1. Law of deduction
2. Modus ponens
3. Modus tollens
4. Transitivity
Two fallacies result from
common misuse of modus
ponens and modus tollens.
These fallacies are assuming
the converse and assuming
the inverse.
EXAMPLE 3 Classify the fallacy
committed by this argument.
All dogs are mammals.
Fido is a mammal.
Therefore, Fido is a dog.
Assuming the converse
Identify the fallacy in the argument.
All US presidents are US citizens
Ken is a US citizen.
Ken is a US president.
1. Assuming the converse
2. Assuming the inverse
Identify the fallacy in the argument.
All whole numbers are integers.
-5 is not a whole number.
-5 is not an integer.
1. Assuming the converse
2. Assuming the inverse

Answer: A → C by transitivity
►A. Exercises
Identify the fallacy in each of the following
arguments.
8. If smoke comes from a house, it
must be on fire. No smoke comes
from the house. Therefore, the house
is not on fire.
Answer: assuming the inverse
►A. Exercises
Identify the fallacy in each of the following
arguments.
9. If the temperature is above 100°C,
then the water will boil. The water on
the campfire was boiling. Thus, its
temperature was above 100°C.
Answer: assuming the converse

test. If you get a high score on the
test, then you will get a good grade
on your report card. If you study for
your geometry test, then you will get
a good grade on your report card.
►B. Exercises
