 On your paper, sketch what you think will happen to these shapes if we apply the force shown in GREEN (assume the sides are rigid)

 The TRIANGLE is the only shape that won’t collapse!  WHY?

 The other shapes collapse because the angles between the structural members change.

 The TRIANGLE cannot collapse because the angles are fixed based on the opposite side length. A C B ab c

 All other shapes can be deformed because the angles are not fixed. Draw these shapes in a way that will keep them from collapsing.

 Make TRIANGLES!

 The same thing applies in 3D
