Title: Teaching High School Mathematics; First Course; Inverses of Operations
Identifier: e_mb_0011
Description: Max Beberman addresses several questions concerning inverse operations: Does the binary operation of addition have an inverse? Is there any quick way of looking at a list of pairs for one operation that will tell you if the operation has an inverse? Inverse operations allow children to quickly find pairs in a new operation by altering the pairs that are already listed for a different operation. Black and white picture with sound. Eastman Kodak edge code reads "square triangle," which correlates to 1965.
