(HELP PLS??)Arrange the reasons for the proof in the correct order. Prove: If the diameter of a circle is 6 meters and the formula for diameter is d = 2r, then the radius of the circle is 3 meters. A. If r ≠ 3 m, then d ≠ 6 m. Since the contrapositive is true, the original statement must also be true. Therefore, if the diameter of a circle is 6 meters, then the radius is 3 meters. B. Multiplication of real numbers shows that d = 2(2 m) = 4 m. C. Substitute r = 2 m into d = 2r. D. Assume that r ≠ 3 m. For example, the radius equals another length, such as r = 2 m.
B.)B, A, C, D C.)D, A, B, C D.)D, C, B, A these are my answer choices.
First we get D.) as we must first assume something at first as our contrapositive. Then we use this assumed statement to be true and substitute r = 2. So C.) comes next. Evaluating d = 2(2m) = 4m after the substitution means that B.) comes next. And lastly, we conclude the proof with contraposition and so A.) comes in last. So the right choice must be D.)
That makes sense now.Thanks!(:
