and
The following are three mathematical proofs; in all three proofs, each step is justified by a mathematical rule or theorem. Perhaps, when I have more time, I will write the justification (rule or theorem) for each step next to each equation. ‘Till then, challenge them as they are!
Way #1
a=0 | |
a^2=0 | |
a-a=0 | |
(a^2)-a=0 | |
\ a-a=(a^2)-a | |
a=a^2 | |
a/a=(a^2)/a | |
1=a | |
\1=0
|
Way #2
a=0 | |
a^2=0 | |
(a^2)-a=0 | |
a(a-1)=0 | |
(a(a-1))/a=0/a | |
a-1=0 | |
\ a=1 | |
\ 1=0
|
Way #3
assume a=2 | |
a-2=0 | |
a-2+1=0+1 | |
a-1=1 | |
if a-2=0, then | |
(a-2)(a-1)=(0)(1) | |
(a-2)(a-1)=0 | |
((a-2)(a-1))/(a-2)=0/(a-2) | |
a-1=0 | |
a=1 | |
\1=2 |
