The reflexive property of equality says that anything is equal to itself. In symbols, A = A. Equality also has the symmetric property, "If A = B, then B = A", and the transitive property, "If A = B and B = C, then A = C". the previous statement is correct, however their is a proof that this theory is incorrect. I will not say it because then you will just tell your math teachers that it is your idea. Bill Door- However, that "proof" is an invalid one because it relies upon dividing by zero, which is nonsense.
substitution property of equality
In math, a mathematical proof. In general, a precise answer.
"In mathematics, a proof is a demonstration that if some fundamental statements (axioms) are assumed to be true, then some mathematical statement is necessarily true." (from Wikipedia)

The first column in a two column proof is used for mathematical statements. The second column is used to state the law or property that makes that statement true - often referring to previous statements in the first column.
Deductive reasoning In mathematics, a proof is a deductive argument for a mathematical statement. Deductive reasoning, unlike inductive reasoning, is a valid form of proof. It is, in fact, the way in which geometric proofs are written.
Unproven Theorems
QED from the Latin "quod erat demonstrandum", meaning "that which was to be demonstrated", normally put at the end of a mathematical proof
