    Study Notes

    Properties of Equality

    • Reflexive Property of Equality: Any real number is equal to itself, expressed as ( a = a ).
    • Symmetric Property of Equality: If one real number equals another, the reverse is also true; if ( a = b ), then ( b = a ).
    • Transitive Property of Equality: A chain of equalities leads to a conclusion of equality; if ( a = b ) and ( b = c ), then ( a = c ).

    Addition and Subtraction Properties

    • Addition Property of Equality: If two numbers are equal, adding the same number to both sides maintains the equality; if ( a = b ), then ( a + c = b + c ).
    • Subtraction Property of Equality: Similar to addition, subtracting the same number from both sides of an equation preserves equality; if ( a = b ), then ( a - c = b - c ).

    Multiplication and Division Properties

    • Multiplication Property of Equality: Multiplying both sides of an equality by the same non-zero number keeps the equality intact; if ( a = b ), then ( ac = bc ).
    • Division Property of Equality: Dividing both sides of an equality by the same non-zero number maintains equality; if ( a = b ) and ( c \neq 0 ), then ( \frac{a}{c} = \frac{b}{c} ).
