EXAMPLE 1 Write a two-column proof 4. m∠ m∠ 2 = m∠ DBC 4. Angle Addition Postulate 5. m∠ EBA = m∠ DBC 5. Transitive Property of Equality
11
GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 1
1. Four steps of a proof are shown. Give the reasons for the last two steps. GIVEN : AC = AB + AB PROVE : AB = BC STATEMENT REASONS 1. AC = AB + AB 1. Given 2. AB + BC = AC 2. Segment Addition Postulate 3. AB + AB = AB + BC 3. ? 4. AB = BC 4. ?
12
GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 1 ANSWER GIVEN : AC = AB + AB
PROVE : AB = BC ANSWER 1. AC = AB + AB 2. AB + BC = AC 3. AB + AB = AB + BC 4. AB = BC Given Segment Addition Postulate Transitive Property of Equality Subtraction Property of Equality STATEMENT REASONS
13
EXAMPLE 2 Name the property shown Name the property illustrated by the statement. a. If R T and T P, then R P. b. If NK BD , then BD NK . SOLUTION Transitive Property of Angle Congruence a. b. Symmetric Property of Segment Congruence
14
GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 2 2. CD CD Reflexive Property of Congruence ANSWER 3. If Q V, then V Q. Symmetric Property of Congruence ANSWER
15
EXAMPLE 3 Use properties of equality Prove this property of midpoints: If you know that M is the midpoint of AB ,prove that AB is two times AM and AM is one half of AB. GIVEN: M is the midpoint of AB . PROVE: a. AB = 2 AM b. AM = AB 2 1
16
Use properties of equality
EXAMPLE 3 Use properties of equality STATEMENT REASONS 1. M is the midpoint of AB. 1. Given 2. AM MB 2. Definition of midpoint 3. AM = MB 3. Definition of congruent segments 4. AM + MB = AB 4. Segment Addition Postulate 5. AM + AM = AB 5. Substitution Property of Equality
17
Use properties of equality
EXAMPLE 3 Use properties of equality 6. 2AM = AB a. 6. Distributive Property AM = AB 2 1 7. b. 7. Division Property of Equality

EXAMPLE 4 Solve a multi-step problem Walking down a hallway at the mall, you notice the music store is halfway between the food court and the shoe store. The shoe store is halfway between the music store and the bookstore. Prove that the distance between the entrances of the food court and music store is the same as the distance between the entrances of the shoe store and bookstore. Shopping Mall
