7 = 7
5 = 5
10 = 10
4 = 4
9 = 9
Reflexive Property
Reflexive Property is A = A
when A is Real number.
If 9 = 6+ 3 then 6+ 3 = 9
If 6 = 4 + 2 then 4 + 2 = 6
If 7 = 4 + 3 then 4 + 3 = 7
If 12 = 10 + 2 then 10 + 2 = 12
Symmetric Property
Symmetric Property is if A = B, then
A = B when A and B is Real number.
Property of Equality
9. If 32 = 9 and 9 = 6 + 3 then 32 = 6 + 3
If 52 = 25 and 25 = 21 + 4 then 52 = 21 + 4
If 42 = 16 and 16 = 6 + 10 then 62 = 6 + 10
If 132 = 169 and 169 = M + 3 then 32 = M + 3
Transitive Property
Transitive Property is if A = B and B = C, then A = C when
A ,B and C are Real number.
10. If 4 3 = 12 and c = 2 then (4 3) + 2 = 12 + 2
If 5 2 = 10 and c = 5 then (5 2 ) + 5 = 10 + 5
If 7 8 = 56 and c = 9 then (8 7) + 9 = 56 + 9
If 8 4 = 32 and c = 3 then (8 4) + 3 = 32 + 3
Addition Property is if A = B, then A + C = B + C when
A ,B and C is Real number.
Addition Property
11. If 4 x 8 = 32 and c = 5 then (4 x 8 )x 5 = 32 x 5
If 9 x 6 = 54 and c = 8 then (9 x 6 )x 8 = 54 x 8
If 12 x 8 = 96 and c = 9 then (12 x 8 )x 9 = 96 x 9
Multiplication Property
Multiplication Property is if A = B, then A × C = B ×C
when A ,B and C is Real number.
