Turn geometry theorems into if-then cards

Practice: Asking for a format you can use. About 5 minutes.

About this exercise

Your Geometry proof test needs theorems stated exactly. Make exactly 5 numbered cards, each one line in the form 'Name: If ..., then ...', each under 25 words, plain text. Use only theorems from Mr. Kaur's notes, include the 2 he starred, and keep the converse he warned about in the right direction.

Common mistakes when you ask AI for this

  • Not saying how many cards. The AI picks its own number, and it usually picks more cards than you need. Try: Be exact: "Exactly 5 numbered cards."
  • Trusting the AI to count words. AI is bad at counting. Ask for a total and it often lands 20% over. Try: Cap each card: "each card under 22 words."
  • Not showing the card shape. The AI writes theorems in its own words with explanations, not the if-then form your test grades. Try: Show one: "Vertical Angles: If two angles are vertical, then they are congruent."
  • Flipping the converse. Your teacher warned that the converse is easy to reverse, and the AI can reverse it too. Try: Add: "For the converse, the 'if' is that the angles are congruent."
  • Letting in other theorems. The AI adds famous theorems like Pythagoras that aren't in this unit. Try: Add: "Only theorems from my notes."

What a strong prompt includes

  • Says how many cards
  • Asks for if-then form
  • Mentions the starred ones
  • Watches the converse
  • Says to use only the material
