Solve each of the following questions using appropriate Euclid’s axiom: In the Fig. 5.8, we have 1 = 3 and 2 = 4. Show that A = C.
To prove: A = C
Here given that 1 = 3, 2 = 4
According to Euclid’s axiom, if equals are added to equals then wholes are also equal.
So here if we add 1, 2 then it is equal to the sum of 3, 4.
1 + 2 = 3 + 4
( 1 + 2 = A ; 3 + 4 = C)
A = C
Hence proved
