Reasoning in Algebra and Geometry 2.5 Learning Target: I can use algebraic properties in geometry to solve problems and justify my steps. I accept postulates and properties to be true
P These pages should be booked marked in your text. This is where all theorems and postulates are located that you can use while doing proofs.
Proofs - When writing a proof, it is important to justify each logical step with a reason. You can use symbols and abbreviations, but they must be clear enough so that anyone who reads your proof will understand them. Conclusion Definitions Postulates Properties Theorems Hypothesis
If a diagram for a proof is not provided, draw your own and mark the given information on it. But do not mark the information in the Prove statement on it. Helpful Hint
