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 ac = bc |
Division Property of Equality | If a = b and b doesn't equal 0, then a/c = b/c |
Substitution Property of Equality | If a = b, then b can be substituted for a in any expression. |
Distributive Property | a(b + c) = ab + ac |
Reflexive Property of Equality | a = a |
Symmetric Property of Equality | If a = b, then b = a |
Transitive Property of Equality | If a = b and b = c, then a = c |
Vertical Angles | Angles whose sides are opposite rays |
Adjacent Angles | Angles with a common vertex, a common side, and no common interior points. |
Vertical Angle Theorem | Vertical Angles are Congruent. |
Congruent Supplement Theorem | If two angles are supplements of the same angle or of congruent angles, then the angles are congruent. |
