Mathematics reasoning through inquiry learning model

Abstract

This research is a descriptive study that aims to study mathematical thinking aspects of reasoning through inquiry learning models on the slope of line. This research focus is on deductive deduction. The subject of this study were 3 students in class VIII of SMP Negeri 1 Indralaya Utara. Based on the results of tests and interviews, it can be concluded that students have mathematical thinking. Students can make conclusions based on a general picture. However, one of the indicator is using algorithms in calculations. There are some students still have difficulty in calculations because of constraints in arithmetic operations and errors in determining the coordinates which are the prerequisite material in this learning. Interesting, students unable to make correct conclusions.
