Teaching Algebra Chapter 4-Equivalence and Equality<\/h2><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Equality and the equal sign (i.e., \u2018=\u2019) are introduced to students during the early elementary years, and as a result, student understanding of the symbol is often taken for granted. However, understanding equality and equivalence symbolically, graphically, and numerically is beneficial for success in algebra at all levels. In this chapter we will use GeoGebra and existing applets to explore properties of equality, equivalence, solutions to equations, and equivalent forms of common equations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
