2. \(\vartriangle, \triangleright, \triangledown, \triangleleft,\, \ldots \)

3. \(1, 4, 9, 16,\, \ldots\)

Each sequence shown here is an arithmetic sequence. Find the next two numbers in each sequence.

a. 10, 16, 22, . . .

b. \(\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}\), 1, \(\displaystyle\frac{3}{2}\), . . .

c. 5, 0, \(-5\), . . .

Each sequence shown here is a geometric sequence. Find the next number in each sequence.

Identify the hypothesis and conclusion in each statement.

a. If a and b are positive numbers, then -a(-b) = ab.

b. If it is raining, then the streets are wet.

c. C = 90° ⇒ c2 = a2 + b2

For the statement below, write the converse, the inverse, and the contrapositive.

     If it is raining, then the streets are wet.
