Study Notes
Algebraic Proofs
- The Addition Property states: If a = b, then a + c = b + c.
- The Subtraction Property states: If a = b, then a - c = b - c.
- The Multiplication Property states: If a = b, then a × c = b × c.
- The Division Property states: If a = b and c ≠ 0, then a/c = b/c.
Properties of Equality
- The Reflexive Property indicates that a = a for any value a.
- The Symmetric Property asserts: If a = b, then b = a.
- The Transitive Property specifies: If a = b and b = c, then a = c.
- The Substitution Property allows for the replacement of a with b in any equation or expression if a = b.
Distributive Property
- The Distributive Property expresses that a(b + c) = ab + ac.
Segment Proofs
- The Segment Addition Postulate explains that if points A, B, and C are collinear, point B is between A and C if and only if AB + BC = AC.
Properties of Congruence
- The Reflexive Property of Congruence states: Segment AB is congruent to itself (AB ≅ AB).
- The Symmetric Property of Congruence maintains that if segment AB ≅ segment CD, then segment CD ≅ segment AB.
- The Transitive Property of Congruence specifies: If segment AB ≅ segment CD and segment CD ≅ segment EF, then segment AB ≅ segment EF.
Geometric Concepts
- Point D is defined as being in the interior of a segment or angle.
