2.5 Proving Statements about Line Segments
Theorems are statements that can be proved
Theorem 2.1 Properties of Segment Congruence
Reflexive AB ≌ ABAll shapes are ≌ to them self
Symmetric If AB ≌ CD, then CD ≌ ABTransitive If AB ≌ CD and CD ≌ EF,
then AB ≌ EF
How to write a Proof
Proofs are formal statements with a conclusion based on given information.
One type of proof is a two column proof.
One column with statements numbered;the other column reasons that are numbered.
