Question

when a=b then what is b=c

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi

If a = b and b = c, then a = c

but not this:

If a = c and b = c, then a = b

So, my question is:

Is the second statement valid? To my mind, it seems that Euclid’s first common notion (things equal to the same thing are equal to each other) should apply to both statements.

Thank you!
