Explain which property, either the Reflexive, Symmetric, Transitive or Substitution, is shown in the following example: (Explaining means just identifying the property is not sufficient - you must explain WHY that is the property you have identified in the given example.)
Example: If A = B and B = C, then A = C.
Property: Transitive
Explanation: In this example, the property being demonstrated is transitive. Transitivity means that if the relationship holds between two elements, and between the second and a third element, then it also holds between the first and third element. In this case, it is demonstrated that if A is equal to B and B is equal to C, then it follows that A is also equal to C. This satisfies the criteria for the transitive property.
