Unit 4 Geometry Unit 4 A – Geometric Figures Lesson 3 Triangles

Lesson 3: Triangles Objective: Swbat classify triangles. Do Now: Quick Check

Lesson 3: Triangles Definitions Triangle has three sides and three angles. Congruent segments are sides with the same length. Acute triangle has all acute angles. Right triangle has one right angle. Obtuse triangle has one obtuse angle. Scalene triangle has no congruent sides. Isosceles triangle has two congruent sides. Equilateral triangle has three congruent sides.

Lesson 3: Triangles Angles of a Triangle Rule The sum of the measures of a the angles of a triangle is 180°. 1 2 3 <1 + <2 + <3 = 180°

Lesson 3: Triangles Sides of a Triangle Rule The lengths of the two shorter sides must be greater than the longer side. 6 in 4 in 9 in 4+6>9 Could the sides of a triangle be 3, 6 and 10 inches?
