Identity and Equality PropertiesIdentity and Equality Properties
• Properties refer to rules that indicate a standard procedure or method to be followed.
• A proof is a demonstration of the truth of a statement in mathematics.
• Properties or rules in mathematics are the result from testing the truth or validity of something by experiment or trial to establish a proof.
• Therefore, every mathematical problem from the easiest to the more complex can be solved by following step by step procedures that are identified as mathematical properties.

Additive Identity PropertyAdditive Identity Property
For any number a, a + 0 = 0 + a = a.
The sum of any number and zero is equal to that number.
The number zero is called the additive identity. Example:
If a = 5 then 5 + 0 = 0 + 5 = 5.

Two numbers whose product is 1 are called
multiplicative inverses or reciprocals.
Zero has no reciprocal because any number times 0 is 0.

Equality PropertiesEquality Properties
• Equality Properties allow you to compute with expressions on both sides of an equation by performing identical operations on both sides of the equal sign. The basic rules to solving equations is this: * Whatever you do to one side of an equation; You must perform the same operation(s) with the same number or expression on the other side of the equals sign.
