Abstract

The objective of the research was to analyze mathematical thinking style through the oral test to prove the theorem of the curvature. Mathematical thinking style was divided into three:visual thinking styles, analytical thinking styles, and integrated thinking style. The research method used was descriptive using qualitative data. The data were collected through oral test using the recording of interview. Students who have a visual thinking could explain the proof of theorem graphically. Students who have an analytical thinking style used the mathematics symbol to prove the theorem. Students with integrated thinking style could prove a theorem not only draw the proof graphically but also explained the proof orally.
