5: Algebraic Proofs and Segments Proofs

(Do NOW 3-5 minutes) Algebraic Proofs Review: Prove the following with the Properties of Equality

A. Addition Property of
Equality
B. Subtraction Property of
Equality
C. Multiplication Property of
Equality
D. Division Property of Equality
E. Distributive Property
F. Substitution Property
G. Reflexive Property
H. Symmetric Property
I. Transitive Property

Recall from VideoNotes8:

Reflexive Property
𝐴𝐵 ≅ 𝐴𝐵
Definition of Congruence
Definition of Midpoint
Property of Congruence
Symmetric Property Transitive Property
If 𝐴𝐵 ≅ 𝐶𝐷, then 𝐶𝐷 ≅ 𝐴𝐵 If 𝐴𝐵 ≅ 𝐶𝐷 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐶𝐷 ≅ 𝐸𝐹 ,
then 𝐴𝐵 ≅ 𝐸𝐹
Definitions
If 𝐴𝐵 = 𝐶𝐷, then 𝐴𝐵 ≅ 𝐶𝐷
If 𝐴𝐵 ≅ 𝐶𝐷, then 𝐴𝐵 = 𝐶𝐷
If M is the midpoint of AB, then 𝐴𝑀 = 𝑀𝐵
Segment Addition Postulate
