  1. 2.5 Addition and Subtraction Properties Objectives: Apply the addition properties of segments and angles, Apply the subtraction properties of segments and angles

  2. Addition Properties Theorem 8 – If a segment is added to two congruent segments, the sums are congruent. (Addition Property) Ex: Apply the above theorem to the diagram. A• B• C• •D Conclusion?

  3. J E H G F Does a similar relationship hold for angles? Is <EFH necessarily congruent to <JFG? Theorem 9 - If an angle is added to two congruent angles, the sums are congruent. (Addition Property)

  4. R M K P O S Now, consider this diagram below: Do you think that KM is necessarily congruent to PO?

  5. Theorem 10 If congruent segments are added to congruent segments, the sums are congruent. (Addition Property)  Theorem 11 If congruent angles are added to congruent angles, the sums are congruent. (Addition Property)

  6. A B C D Subtraction Properties Because subtraction is equivalent to addition of an opposite, we can expect four corresponding subtraction properties. EX: Let AC = 12 and BC = 3. If AC = BD, what is AB? CD?

  7. Theorem 12 - If a segment (or angle) is subtracted from congruent segments (or angles), the differences are congruent. (Subtraction Property)

  8. K R N P O Ex: If KO = KP and NO = RP, is KN = KR? Theorem 13 - If congruent segments (or angles) are subtracted from congruent segments (or angles), the differences are congruent. (Subtraction Property)

  9. Using the Addition and Subtraction Properties in Proofs An addition property is used when the segments or angles in the conclusion are greater than those in the given information. A subtraction property is used when the segments or angles in the conclusion are smaller than those in the given information.
