Practice 1-1: Patterns and Inductive Reasoning

Find the pattern is the name of the game! Learners examine different patterns represented by numbers, shapes, and words. They must describe the pattern, predict the result in a given position, and find an equation that represents a...

While deductive reasoning is something many students are exposed to in everyday life, the rigor of inductive reasoning is often harder to grasp. This excellent skill builder presentation and worksheet breaks down mathematical induction...

One-step equations are the foundation of algebra and your mathematicians can strengthen their skill set with this two-page worksheet. The problems consist of all the operations and include positive and negative numbers for integer...

Seventh grade math is so much fun! They solve 10 different problems that include using patterns to complete a table, describe the pattern, and identify the specific term in the pattern for each. Then they give a description of the...

In this inductive reasoning and conjecturing worksheet, 10th graders solve 8 different problems that are related to using inductive reasoning and conjecturing. First, they determine if the conjecture is true or false based on the given...

The example of two travelers meeting somewhere along the road has been a stereotypical joke about algebra as long as algebra has existed. Here in this detailed presentation, this old trope gets a careful and approachable treatment....

Let's get specific about the general conclusion. The video, a portion of an extensive geometry playlist, introduces inductive reasoning. Using patterns, the resource explains how inductive reasoning goes from the specific to general.

Starting a new set of SAT practice problems from The Official SAT Study Guide (page 518), Sal takes students through some straightforward questions involving basic algebra and functions. However, as every math teacher and student knows,...

Sal's lecture starts where his last one ended - on problem 13 from The Official SAT Study Guide. Starting the problem over to ease understanding, he explains how to find the pattern in a complicated sequence. The following problem...

Learners use inductive reasoning every day but might not realize it. An instructive video demonstrates that the process of inductive reasoning means searching for and identifying patterns. The instructor begins with numeric examples and...
