What direct proof? Give a direct proof of the theorem "If n is an odd integer, then n2n^2n2 is an odd integer." [5]
A direct proof is a method of proving a statement of the form "If P, then Q" by assuming P is true and using logical steps, definitions, axioms, and previously proven theorems to show that Q must also be true. It proceeds in a straightforward, linear chain of reasoning from hypothesis to conclusi...
