Geometry Lesson 2 – 6 Algebraic Proof Objective: Use algebra to write two-column proofs. Use properties of equality to write geometric proofs.
Algebraic properties • Addition Property of Equality • If a = b, then a + c = b + c • Subtraction Property of Equality • If a = b, then a – c = b – c • Multiplication Property of Equality • If a = b, then a(c) = b(c) • Division property • If a = b, the a/c = b/c c cannot be 0
Reflexive • a = a • Symmetric • If a = b, then b = a • Transitive • If a = b and b = c, then a = c
Substitution • If a = b, then a may be replaced by b in any equation or expression. • Distributive Property • a(b + c) = ab + ac
Algebraic proof • A proof that is made up of a series of algebraic statements.
Prove that if –5(x+4) = 70, then x = -18Write a justification for each step. -5(x + 4) = 70 Given Proof: Distributive property -5x - 20 = 70 +20 +20 Subtraction prop -5x = 90 Substitution Note: Must rewrite When asked to show steps Division prop. Substitution x = -18
State the property that justifies each statement. Addition property • If 4 + (-5) = -1, then x + 4 + (-5) = x – 1 • If 5 = y, then y = 5. Symmetric property
Solve 2(5 – 3a) – 4(a + 7) = 92. Write a Justification for each step. Given 2(5 – 3a) – 4(a + 7) = 92 Distributive prop 10 – 6a – 4a – 28 = 92 Sub. -18 – 10a = 92 Add. prop +18 +18 sub -10a = 110 Division prop sub a = -11
