Commutative Property

The commuting distance is the same in either direction, from home to work or work to home.


The Commutative Property tells us that:
a + b = b + a or a × b = b × a


Associative Property

To associate with people is to group up with them.

The Associative Property are about grouping:

(a + b) + c = a + (b + c), or (a × b) × c = a × (b × c)


Distributive Property

To distribute something is to give it to everyone.

The Distributive Property “gives” whatever’s outside the parentheses to everything inside: a (b + c)=ab + ac

Multiplying Integers

From friendship: friend = pos (+), enemy = neg(-)

My friend's friend is my friend (pos × pos = pos)

My friend's enemy is my enemy (pos × neg = neg)

My enemy's friend is my enemy (neg × pos = neg)

My enemy's enemy is my friend (neg× neg = pos)

Angles - Complementary, Supplementary

Complementary = Corner (90 degree)

Supplementary = Straight Line (180 degree)
