A Mathematical Theorem begins with a Mathematical Hypothesis, proceeds thru Mathematical Reasoning to reach a Mathematical Conclusion.
Mathematicians seek to establish chains of reasoning that are convincing to other mathematicians. The main differences between mathematical argument and ordinary logical argument are in the topics of mathematical discourse.
The following diagram displays the relations among the terms:
- Theorem = Hypothesis--->Proof--->Conclusion
