a+(-a)=0 and (-a)+a=0 | Property of Opposites |
a+b=b+a | Communicative Property of Addition |
ab=ba | Communicative Property of Multiplication |
(a+b)+c=a+(b+c) | Associative Property of Addition |
(ab)c=a(bc) | Associative Property of Multiplication |
a=a | Reflexive Property of Equality |
a=b, then b=a | Symmetric Property of Equality |
a=b and b=c, then a=c | Transitive Property of Equality |
a+0=a and 0+a=a | Identity Property of Addition |
-(a+b)=(-a)+(-b) | Property of the Opposite of a Sum |
a-b=a+(-b) | Definition of Subtraction |
a(b+c)=ab+ac and (b=c)a=ba+ca | Distributive Property(of multiplication with respect to Addition |
a(-c)=ab-ac and (b-c)a+ba-ca | Distributive Property(of Multiplication with respect to subtraction |
a x 1=a | Identity Property of Multiplication |
a x 0=0 | Multiplicative Property of Zero |
a(-1)=-a and (-1)a=-a | Multiplicative Property of -1 |
(-a)(b)=-ab a(-b)=-ab (-a)(-b)=ab | Property of Opposites in Products |
1/-a=-1/a | Property of the Reciprocals of the opposite of a Number |
a x 1/a=1 and 1/a x =1 | Property of Reciprocals |
1/ab=1/a x 1/b | Property of the Reciprocals of a Product |
a/b=a x 1/b | Definition of Division |
