Triangles

We are going to make several polygons and record data.


In a table:


Make 5 triangles.


1. Side lengths (Between 2 and 20)
2. If a triangle could be created

3. Space to sketch the triangle

L-52

Rules for Knowing if 3 Side Lengths Will make a Triangle

**Two short sides added together must be longer than the longest side

-3 corners A, B, and C. A is at the top

-B is at the bottom left, C is at the bottom right.

-A's measure is 74 degrees

-B's angle measure is 60 degrees and C's angle measure us 46 degrees.

-Side AB is 3 cm. Side BC is 4 cm and side AC is 3.6 cm.

-Build this triangle: angle A(top)=74 degrees

-Angle B (bottom left)=60 degrees

-Angle C (Bottom right)= 64 degrees

-Line segment AB=3 cm, BC=4 cm, CA=3,6 cm

Could I minimize this data and still produce the triangle?

* Don't put anything about top, bottom, left, and right. Does it have to be in the same position as what is on the board?

What is the least info we need to text to get the same triangle?
