Welcome to Triangles! Transformations was Unit 2 Part 1 We are still on Unit 2, but we are now focusing on TRIANGLES! On your whiteboard, write down everything you know about triangles.

Do Now!:Whiteboards Classify each angle as acute, obtuse, or right What are the possible degrees of an acute, obtuse, right, and straight angle.

Agenda U2L5- Classifying Triangles U2L6- Angles Relationships in Triangles Proving the Triangle Sum Theorem Cool-Down… You will get your Transformation Test at the earliest on Friday

4.1: Classifying Triangles  Learning Objective  SWBAT classify triangles by their angle measures and side lengths.

How to Classify Triangles Todays topic is all about classifying triangles, meaning what category do they fall under. We can classify triangles two ways: 1.By their angle measures. 2.By their side lengths.

By Angle Measures How to Classify Triangles: NOTE: When you look at a figure, you cannot assume segments or angles are congruent based on appearance. They must be marked as congruent using tick or arc marks.

4-1 Classifying Triangles Lets recall how to label the sides and angles. B A C AB, BC, and AC are the sides of ABC. A, B, C are the triangle's vertices.

Acute Triangle Three acute angles Triangle Classification By Angle Measures 4-1 Classifying Triangles

Equiangular Triangle Three congruent acute angles Triangle Classification By Angle Measures 4-1 Classifying Triangles

Right Triangle One right angle Triangle Classification By Angle Measures 4-1 Classifying Triangles

Obtuse Triangle One obtuse angle Triangle Classification By Angle Measures 4-1 Classifying Triangles

Equilateral Triangle Three congruent sides Triangle Classification By Side Lengths Classifying by Side Lengths

Isosceles Triangle At least two congruent sides Triangle Classification By Side Lengths 4-1 Classifying Triangles

Scalene Triangle No congruent sides Triangle Classification By Side Lengths 4-1 Classifying Triangles

By Angle Measures Example 1

Classify ABD by its angle measures. Whiteboards

1.Classify ACD by its side lengths. 2.Classify ADB by its side lengths. 3.Classify ACB by its side lengths.

By Angle Measures 4-1 Classifying Triangles Example 2 Find the side lengths of JKL.

Find the side lengths of equilateral FGH. Whiteboards

Classify each triangle by its angles and sides. 1. MNQ 2. NQP 3.MNP

By Angle Measures Closure for 4.1 On your whiteboard, draw and label your triangle. Classify your triangle by the Angles and the Side Lengths! Find someone in the room ( that is NOT at your table) with the same classification as you!

MATH JOKE OF THE DAY How many feet are in a yard? It depends on how many people are in the yard!

4.2: Angle Relationships in Triangles Learning Objective – SWBAT find the measures and apply theorems of interior and exterior angles of triangles.

Developing the Triangle Sum Theorem Materials  Scratch piece of paper  Straightedge  Scissors

Directions 1.Using a straightedge, draw a triangle and label the angles A,B,C INSIDE the triangles ( look at whiteboard) 2.Cut the triangle out and the angles. 3.Try to form a straight line with the angles.

Reflection Answer the three questions on your notes 1)What do you notice about the three angles of the triangle? 1)Look at your table-mates triangles. Did they notice the same thing or different? 1)Write an equation describing the relationship among the measures of the interior angles in a triangle.

Congrats! You just figured out the Triangle Sum Theorem

Recall Remember back to Unit 1, when we added a line to help us solve the following type of problem Well, that is called an auxiliary line.

An auxiliary line is a line that is added to a figure to aid in a proof. An auxiliary line used in the Triangle Sum Theorem A B CY2CY2 X

Brainstorm for Triangle Sum Theorem On your whiteboards, answer the following questions: What is the relationship between angles 1 and 4? What is the relationship between angles 3 and 5? Using the angle addition postulate, what do angles 1, 2 and 3 equal? A B CX

Proof of Triangle Sum Theorem

With your table, put the following cards in order. When you are done, raise your hand and I will check it off and then you will write it on your guided notes. Use each card once.

Example 1

After an accident, the positions of cars are measured by law enforcement to investigate the collision. Use the diagram drawn from the information collected to find the following: 1.m  XYZ. 2.m  YWZ Whiteboards

Table-Share What is the measure of each angle of an equiangular triangle? Write your thoughts on your whiteboard.

Table-Share What is the relationship between the two other angles in a right triangle? Write your thoughts on your whiteboard.

Congrats! You just formed the two corollaries by yourself!

A corollary is a theorem whose proof follows directly from another theorem. Here are two corollaries to the Triangle Sum Theorem.

One of the acute angles in a right triangle measures 2x°. What is the measure of the other acute angle? m  A + m  B = 90° 2x + m  B = 90 m  B = (90 – 2x)° Let the acute angles be  A and  B, with m  A = 2x°. Example 2: Finding Angle Measures in Right Triangles

Whiteboards The measure of one of the acute angles in a right triangle is x°. What is the measure of the other acute angle?

Interior all points inside the figure Exterior all points outside the figure. Interior Exterior 1.What are the interior angles? 2.What are the exterior angles?

Exterior Angle Theorem The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of its non-adjacent interior angles 4= 1 + 2
