which one do you think it is?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
a?
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
no, if you have x = y, then you can also say y = x
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
think of a mirror reflection...reflections produce symmetry
OpenStudy (anonymous):
C

yes
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
the symmetric property is
if
x = y
then
y = x

something is always equal to itself is due to the reflexive property (think of the mirror again, but it's not the symmetric property)
