Let's prove the following theorem:

if the following are true:
  • x = 12
  • d = (x2) + 1

then d = 25

Given
1 x = 12
2 d = (x2) + 1
Proof Table
# Claim Reason
1 x2 = 122 if x = 12, then x2 = 122
2 (x2) + 1 = (122) + 1 if x2 = 122, then (x2) + 1 = (122) + 1
3 d = (122) + 1 if d = (x2) + 1 and (x2) + 1 = (122) + 1, then d = (122) + 1
4 (122) + 1 = 25 (122) + 1 = 25
5 d = 25 if d = (122) + 1 and (122) + 1 = 25, then d = 25
