prove the equivalence of a+b=b and a*b=a in the boolean algebra theorem [closed]
$begingroup$
This is a question in the boolean algebra and their equivalence should be proved i the theorem 5 of the boolean algebra.Am capable of proving the theorem 5 but i still dont ahve a clue on how to start answering this question.Ihave tried to look for similar questions but i have not found any...the one that i have found odoesn't have the the solutions that i can refer to.It is a new topic in my life so please help me solve this.

Welcome to MSE. Are we all supposed to know what theorem 5 is?

If $a+b=b$ then $asubset b$, which gives $ab=a$.
The second part is the same.

$a + b = b Longrightarrow a + ab = ab Longrightarrow a = a1 = a(1 + b) = a + ab = ab; tag 1$
$ab = a Longrightarrow a = ab + a = a(b + 1) = a1 = a. tag 2$
