If MN = QR, then JK + MN = JK + QR. @vzfreakz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What are your options.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@vzfreakz symmetric property substitution property addition property transitive property reflexive property

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't think it would be substitution.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@vzfreakz so what would you go with?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll let @ganeshie8 answer this.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

MN = QR Adding JK to both sides gives you : JK + MN = JK + QR

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

So... clearly it is _________ property ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8 addition property?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yep ! good work !!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8 can you help me in something else? i have to upload images so you can see the problem so ill ask thru here is it fine?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

I'll try, ask...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For the proof shown, provide statement 5 @ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

got options for this ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8 a. AB = DE c. BC = EF b. AB = EF d. AC = DF

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No sir I do not. He asked this question to me earlier.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I forgot how to compute this property problem. It's been a while.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@vzfreakz yes the options are there . i mentioned you in the other question the options .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Number 3 is Commutative of -.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

its a trick question - we need to fill 5th statement using the 3rd and 4th statements

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

lets look at 3rd and 4th statements

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

3. \(\color{red}{AC - BC} = \color{green}{DF - EF}\) 4. \(\color{red}{AC - BC = AB}\) \(\color{green}{DF - EF = DE}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, this is what I got so far. The general example would be a=b, then 'a' may be substituted for 'b', and conversely. So, what I'm thinking is if (a+b)=c, then c may be substituted by any number.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or it could be the other way around..

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Exactly ! we need to substitute AB and DE in the 3rd statement

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

3. \(\color{red}{AC - BC} = \color{green}{DF - EF}\) 4. \(\color{red}{AC - BC = AB}\) \(\color{green}{DF - EF = DE}\) 5. \(\large \color{red}{AB} = \color{green}{DE}\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

see if that looks okay...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm watching this video just to be sure we're right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeishie8 yes it does can you help me with another one ? and it is asking to provide statement 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, is the answer right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Same here friend, same here.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Alright, so its not an exam right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're talking to @trruhgnh, just to be sure.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8 no its not its just assignments

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

okay, the last question is pretty easy - heard of `transitive property` before ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Transitive property : If \(a = b\) and \(b = c\), then \(a = c\).

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

In second statement you're given below : \(AB =CD\) and \(CD = EF\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

So by transitive property we can say : \(\large AB = ?\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AD? @ganeshie8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You guys go ahead an work on this. I'm done answering this lol.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and*

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

If \(AB =CD\) and \(CD = EF\) , then \(\large AB = EF\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

transitive property tells us to simply equate first and last parts.. ^
