Theorem 14: If segments or angles are congruent, then their like multiples are congruent. (property of multiplication. )
B, C and F, G are trisection points on two segments AD and EH respectfully. If AB = EF = 3, What can you say about AD and EH? Draw and label segments Write a conclusion
Theorem 15: If two segments or angles are congruent, then their like divisions are congruent. (Property of division)
Multiplication and Division Proofs: 1. Look for a double use of the word midpoint, trisection, bisect in the given information 2. Multiplication Property is used when the segments or angles in the conclusion are greater than those in the given information. 3. Division Property is used when the segments or angles in the conclusion are smaller than the given information.
