Conclusion.
The final line of a proof states the thing you set out to prove (often written with "Therefore", "Hence", or "QED"). The earlier lines are the given information/assumptions and the argument that derives the conclusion; the last step is where you explicitly state that the conclusion follows. (In a proof by contradiction the last step may note the contradiction and then conclude the original claim.)
