A. I think because this builds upon the previous things we have learned, the difficult part with be continued familiarity with these proofs. Practice makes perfect and the more we work them out the better we will see and develop on our own mathematical proving strategies and techniques. In the text, it stated that part of learning mathematics is making mistakes. We all do but what makes the difference is learning from and not repeating them. There were examples of finding mistakes that others have made and that might be difficult if is a similar mistake to the ones I might be making. It would be important and helpful to be able to identify and correct those types of mistakes.
B. These problems and exercises that we have done are building blocks in a foundation for more complex mathematics. It was very interesting to me to see how the previous subjects we have studied have been applied and built upon. We have studied sets, basics proof strategy, and logic, and now we are putting them together to prove more complicating exercises that require this foundation.
