Description: In this video, Professor Edward Burger uses properties of Real Numbers to find inverses. The opposite of a number is also known as its "additive inverse." The sum of a number and its additive inverse is always 0. The reciprocal of a nonzero number is also known as its "multiplicative inverse." The product of a nonzero number and its multiplicative inverse is always 1. This video is from Thinkwell's Algebra 2 course.
