Proof: Transitive Property Application 4
Let's prove the following theorem:
if the following are true:
- a = b
- b = c
- c = d
- d = e
then a = e
Proof:
Given
| 1 | a = b |
|---|---|
| 2 | b = c |
| 3 | c = d |
| 4 | d = e |
| # | Claim | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | a = d | if c = d and b = c and a = b, then a = d |
| 2 | a = e | if d = e and a = d, then a = e |
