Given:

The properties and their notations are given.

To match:

Step-by-step explanation:

31. It is given that,


a+0=a

Since zero is the additive identity.

So, the property is an identity property of addition.

32. It is given that,


a+b=b+a

Here, the property is the commutative property of addition.

33. It is given that,


a\cdot(b\cdot c)=(a\cdot b)\cdot c

Here, the property is an Associative property of multiplication.

34. It is given that,


a+(-a)=0

Since -a is the additive inverse of a.

So, the property is the Inverse property of addition.

35. It is given that,


a\cdot1=a

Since 1 is the multiplicative identity.

So, the property is an identity property of multiplication.

36. It is given that,


a\cdot(b+c)=ab+ac

Here, the property is a distributive property of addition.

37. It is given that,


a\cdot b=b\cdot a

Here, the property is a commutative property of multiplication.

38. It is given that,


a\cdot(1)/(a)=1

Here, the property is an inverse property of multiplication.

39. It is given that,


a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c

Here, the property is an Associative property of addition.

Final answer:

31. E

32. A

33. D

34. AC

35. AB

36.
