[QUOTE="Epond89, post: 4862558, member: 522806"] [h2]Homework Statement [/h2] I have to prove or disprove the following statement. The product of an integer and its square is even [h2]Homework Equations[/h2] n[SUP]2[/SUP]*n n = 2k + 1 (Odd integers)[/B] [h2]The Attempt at a Solution[/h2] [ATTACH=full]73597[/ATTACH] [B]I uploaded a photo of my proof. As you can see, I have proved that if n is an odd integer, the product of n squared and n will be odd as well. My question is what type of proof is this? I was thinking it was proof by counterexample but I wasn't sure if the correct terminology would be "disproof by counterexample". Or is it a proof by contradiction? Any help is appretiated : )[/B] [/QUOTE]
