What does the Segment Addition Postulate state?

Back

If point B is between points A and C, then AB + BC = AC.

Front

What is the Distributive Property?

Back

a(b + c) = ab + ac; it allows you to multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately.

What is the purpose of a proof in geometry?

Back

To provide a logical argument that demonstrates the truth of a statement or theorem.
