Obj. 7 Algebraic Proof
proof – an argument which uses logic, definitions,
properties, and previously proven statements
algebraic proof – A proof which uses algebraic
properties
• When you write a proof, you must give a justification
(reason) for each step to show that it is valid. For
each justification, you can use a definition, postulate,
property, or a piece of given information.

Make a hotdog fold.
Make shutters.
Open up all the folds and make a hamburger fold.
Make shutters.
Cut from the edge of the paper to the fold on each
side. This should give you eight sections.

Example: Solve the equation 21 = 4x – 7. Write a
justification for each step.
21 = 4x – 7
21 + 7 = 4x – 7 + 7
28 = 4x

Simplify
Sym. prop. =
Line segments with equal lengths are
congruent, and angles with equal
measures are also congruent.
Therefore, the reflexive, symmetric, and
transitive properties of equality have
corresponding properties of
congruence.
