Introduce algebraic proofs and properties needed for geometric proofs.


Proof: Use logic, facts and deductions to prove a statement true.
Reflexive Property: a=a
Symmetric Property: If a=b, then b=a. (Switch the order around the equal sign)
Transitive Property: If a=b and b=c, then a=c. (Comparing three values)
Addition and Subtraction Properties: Add or Subtract to both sides of the equation
Multiplication and Division Properties: Multiply or Divide both sides of the equation
Substitution Property: If a=b, then a may be replaced in a equation with b.
Distributive Property: a(b+c) = ab + ac
