Name the property that the statement illustrates:
If and , then
- Reflexive property of congruence
- Symmetric property of congruence
- Transitive property of congruence
Hint:
definition of transitive relation .
The correct answer is: Transitive property of congruence
Given and , then
According to transitive property .
( a, b ) is in relation ( b , c ) is in relation then ( a , c ) will also be there
And above relation also follows the same thing .
SO , it is transitive .
In mathematics, a relation R on a set X is transitive if, for all elements a, b, c in X, whenever R relates a to b and b to c, then R also relates a to c.
