Answer 1

Option A

addition property of equality

• a^2=bc
• d^2=ef

So

• a^2+d^2=bc+ef

And

Distributive property

• a(b+c)=ab+bc

Hence option A is correct

Answer 2

a)

Explanation:

Given: Step 3

(JK)² = LK · MK and (LJ)² = LK · ML

Step 4

Addition property of equality

(JK)² + (LJ)² = LK · MK + LK · ML

Step 5

Distributive property

(JK)² + (LJ)² = LK (MK + ML)
