Mathematical Reasoning is the branch of mathematics that uses logical thinking to analyze statements, determine their truth values, and draw valid conclusions using logical connectives, quantifiers, patterns, and proof techniques. It helps in developing problem-solving and decision-making skills and forms the foundation of mathematics and computer science.
