STUDENT’S PRAYER

Creator of all things,


true source of light and wisdom,
origin of all being,
graciously let a ray of your light penetrate
the darkness of my understanding.
Take from me the double darkness
in which I have been born,
an obscurity of sin and ignorance.
Give me a keen understanding,
a retentive memory, and
the ability to grasp things
correctly and fundamentally.
Grant me the talent
of being exact in my explanations
and the ability to express myself
with thoroughness and charm.
Point out the beginning,
direct the progress,
and help in the completion.

I ask this through Christ our Lord.


Amen.

LESSON 8. INDUCTIVE REASONING AND CONJECTURE

Motivation
MATH8-Q2W7E1
INTRODUCTORY ACTIVITY

Process Questions:

1. What are the three girls talking?

2. Who among them is reasonable? Why?

3. Why is reasoning important in our daily


conversation?

4. How are clear and coherent arguments and


proofs formulated? How are they proved or
disproved?
DISCUSSION

MATH8-Q2W7F1
Inductive reasoning is a process of coming to a general conclusion from seeing
patterns in specific examples and looking for the regularity in those patterns.
Conjecture is a concluding statement that is reached using inductive reasoning.

Example1:
Write a conjecture that describes the pattern 2, 4, 12, 48, 240. Then use your conjecture
to find the next item in the sequence.
Step1. 2 4 12 48 240
x2 x3 x4 x5
Step2. Make a conjecture
The numbers are multiplied by 2, 3, 4, and 5. The next number will be the product
of 240 and 6 .
Step 3. Predict next item
1,440

Example 2:
Write a conjecture that describes the pattern in the sequence. Then use your conjecture
to find the next item in the sequence.
𝟏 𝟏 𝟏 𝟏
1, , , ,
𝟒 𝟗 𝟏𝟔 𝟐𝟓

Step 1. Look for a pattern.


𝟏 𝟏 𝟏 𝟏 𝟏
𝟏𝟐, 𝟐 𝟐, 𝟑𝟐, 𝟐,
𝟒 𝟓𝟐
Step2. Make a conjecture
The next term has a denominator that is the next “perfect square” or squared the
next integer.

Step 3. Predict next item

𝟏
𝟑𝟔
Example 3:
Observe the square boxes below. Make a conjecture about the next figure based on the
pattern.

Step 1. Look for a pattern.


Each figure consists of four small squares. Some of the small squares are
shaded.
Step2. Make a conjecture
A small square is shaded starting from the top left of the figure. An additional
square is shaded in a clockwise pattern.
Step 3. Predict next item.

Guided Practice

MATH8-Q2W7D1
A. Find a pattern for each sequence. Use the pattern to show the next two terms.

1. 5, 10, 20, 40,….


2. 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, …
3. 1, 2, 6, 24, 120, ….
1 1 1
4. 1, 2 , 4 , 8 , …
5. 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, …

MATH8-Q2W7D2
B. Use the sequence and inductive reasoning to make a conjecture.

1. What is the shape of the fifteenth figure?


2. What is the shape of the twelfth figure?
3. What is the shape of the thirtieth figure?
4. What is the shape of the fortieth figure?
