ABSTRACT

This article addresses the topic of logical-deductive reasoning applied to learning mathematics. This is a subject of utmost relevance, highlighting that the role of this discipline in the educational curriculum is to provide empirical knowledge on how to apply intelligence to challenging everyday situations. Its scientific relevance lies in the fact that it discusses didactic and methodological techniques aimed at empirical learning of mathematics, using mnemonic resources. Its social relevance lies in the fact that, through this learning method, students can expand their views of the conscious world and beyond. This is a bibliographical research work, based on authors working in the field of education. The general objective is to discuss, academically, how the application of logical-deductive reasoning can help in learning mathematical content, strengthening reason and understanding of curricular didactic processes. All human life is permeated and crossed by mathematical situations, whether they are simple or complex and, in the case of the first, through logical reasoning, one is able to solve them, while in the second, it is necessary support of other materials, such as paper, pens, calculating machines, in addition to a greater time burden. What is intended by solving the problem is not its solution, per se, the didactic interest is to make the student think about the direct and indirect consequences arising from its existence and its resolution; how all this applies to your life and your existence.
