Chapter 2 - Section 5 Flashcards
Addition Property
If a=b then a+c = b+c
Subtraction Property
If a=b then a-c = b-c
Multiplication Property
If a=b then ac = bc
Division Property
If a=b then a/c = b/c; A=/ 0
Reflexive Property
a=a
Symmetric Property
If a=b then b=a
Transitive Property
If a=b and b=c then a=c
Substitution Property
If a=b then b can replace a in any expression
Distributive Property
a(b + c) = ab + ac
Properties of Equality
Properties that make up the basis of Geometry.
Properties of Congruence
Properties that makeup segments and angles.
Reflexive
a=a in the segment and angled form.
Symmetric
If ab=cd then cd=ab.
Transitive
If ab = cd and cd = ef then ab = ef
Proofs
A convincing argument that used deductive reasoning. Shows why a conjecture is true. It is simply justifying a problem that you’ve done.
