zero added to any addend the sum will equal the same addend. :P

* * * * *

That is good - but only for addition. there is also the multiplicative identity (1) and other identities for other operators.

Generally, the identity property for a set with a binary operator ~ defined on it is the existence of a unique element of the set, denoted by i, such that for every member of the set, x,

x ~ i = x = i ~ x

It is easy to see that the identity for addition is 0: x + 0 = x = 0 + x for all x

or that the identity for multiplication of numbers is 1: x * 1 = x = 1 * x

But there are other identities in higher mathematics - for example the identity matrix.

What does identity property in math look like?

The identity property, of a set S and a binary operation # states that there exists, in S an element i such that for any element x is S,x # i = i # x = xIf S is the set of Integers, Rationals, Reals and the operator is addition, then the additive identity is the number 0. If the operation is multiplication, the multiplicative identity is 1.


What dose identity property look like?

A set, S, with a binary operation, ~, defined on it has an identity (with respect to the operation) if there is an element, i, in S such that for all x in S,x ~ i = x = i ~ x. For example, when ~ is addition, i is denoted by 0, and when ~ is multiplication, i is denoted by 1.

What is communative property look like?

No idea what the communative property is. The commutative property for addition is that a + b = b + a. Similarly, for multiplication, a*b = b*a
