Question

Identify the property that justifies the statement:

x = y, so y = x

A) Transitive Property of Equality
B) Symmetric Property of Equality
C) Substitution Property of Equality
D) Property of Equality

Answer 1

Well, you really need to have the properties memorized

Transitive property is:
If a = b, and b = c, then a = c

Symmetric is
If a = b, then b = a

Substitution is:
If a = b, then you can substitute a in place of b and b in place of a

Property of equalities is:
"a = b means a is equal to b."
