Properties refer to rules that indicate astandard procedure or method to be followed.
A proof is a demonstration of the truth of astatement in mathematics.
Properties or rules in mathematics are theresult from testing the truth or validity ofsomething by experiment or trial to establish aproof.
Therefore every mathematical problem fromthe easiest to the more complex can be solvedby following step by step procedures that are
identified as mathematical properties.

Additive IdentityProperty
For any number a, a + 0 = 0 + a = a.
If a = 5 then 5 + 0 = 0 + 5 = 5
The sum of any number and zero is equal to that number.
The number zero is called the additive identity.

Multiplicativeidentity Property
For any number a, a 1 = 1 a = a.
If a = 6 then 6 1 = 1 6 = 6
The product of any number and one is equal to that number.
The number one is called the multiplicative identity.

MultiplicativeProperty of Zero
For any number a, a 0 = 0 a = 0.
If a = 6 then 6 1 = 1 6 = 6

MultiplicativeInverse Property
Two numbers whose product is 1 are called multiplicative
inverses or reciprocals.
Zero has no reciprocal because any number times 0 is 0.

Equality Properties allow you to compute with expressions on both sides of anequation by performing identical operations on both sides of the equation. Thiscreates a balance to the mathematical problem and allows you to keep the equationtrue and thus be referred to as a property. The basic rules to solving equations isbased on these properties. Whatever you do to one side of an equation; You mustperform the same operation(s) with the same number or expression on the otherside of the equals sign.

Reflexive Propertyof Equality
For any number a, a = a.
If a = a ; then 7 = 7;
then 5.2 = 5.2
The reflexive property of equality says that any real number isequal to itself.
Many mathematical statements and algebraic properties arewritten in if-thenform when describing the rule(s) or giving anexample.
The hypothesis is the part following if, and the conclusion isthe part following then.

Symmetric Propertyof Equality
For any numbers a and b, if a = b, then b = a.
If 10 = 7 + 3; then 7 +3 = 10
If a = b then b = a
The symmetric property of equality says that if one quantityequals a second quantity, then the second quantity alsoequals the first.
Many mathematical statements and algebraic properties arewritten in if-thenform when describing the rule(s) or giving an
example.
The hypothesis is the part following if, and the conclusion isthe part following then.

Transitive Propertyof Equality
For any numbers a, b and c, if a = b and
b = c, then a = c.
If 8 + 4 = 12 and 12 = 7 + 5, then 8 + 4 = 7 + 5
If a = b and b = c , then a = c
The transitive property of equality says that if one quantityequals a second quantity, and the second quantity equals athird quantity, then the first and third quantities are equal.
Many mathematical statements and algebraic properties arewritten in if-thenform when describing the rule(s) or giving an
example.
The hypothesis is the part following if, and the conclusion isthe part following then.

SubstitutionProperty of Equality
If a = b, then a may be replaced by b in any
expression.
If 8 + 4 = 7 + 5; since 8 + 4 = 12 or 7 + 5 = 12;
Then we can substitute either simplificationinto the original mathematical statement.
The substitution property of equality says that a quantity maybe substituted by its equal in any expression.
Many mathematical statements and algebraic properties arewritten in if-thenform when describing the rule(s) or giving anexample.

Addition Propertyof Equality
If a = b, then a + c = b + c or a c = b - c
If 6 = 6 ; then 6 +3 = 6 + 3 or 6 3 = 6 - 3
If a = b ; then a + c = b + c or a
c = b - c
The addition property of equality says that if you add orsubtract equal quantities to each side of the equation you getequal quantities.
Many mathematical statements and algebraic properties arewritten in if-thenform when describing the rule(s) or giving anexample.
The hypothesis is the part following if, and the conclusion isthe part following then.
