Question
a statement that is proved by deductive logic is called a ______. options: undefined term, defined term, theorem, postulate
In mathematics (specifically in areas like geometry or algebra), a theorem is a statement that is proven using deductive logic. An undefined term is a basic concept without a formal definition (e.g., point, line in geometry). A defined term is given a definition based on undefined terms or other defined terms. A postulate (or axiom) is a statement accepted as true without proof. So the correct answer is theorem as it matches the description of a statement proven by deductive logic.
