6. Definition The next page has a visual definition of the word Adjacent. This definition is the same as when the word is used in English class. What is the English language definition of adjacent?

7. Triangle Exterior Angles

8. Review Recall the exterior angle theorem for triangles

9. Inequalities We can combine inequalities with known equations.

10. Theorem How do we combine the comparison property with the exterior angle theorem

11. Investigation - Supplies Ruler Protractors Computer Paper – 1 piece

12. Investigation Everyone Draw a triangle on a blank piece of paper

13. Investigation Use the protractor to measure all the angles in the triangle

14. Investigation Label the largest angle L Label the smallest angle S Label the middle sized angle M

15. Investigation Use the ruler to measure the lengths of the three sides

16. Investigation Label the largest side l Label the smallest side s Label the middle sized side m

17. Investigation Which side is opposite angle L?

18. Investigation Which side is opposite angle S? Is this true for all students? What conjecture can you make?

37. Investigation 1 - Supplies Spaghetti Handout – titled “What is the shortest path from A to B”

38. Investigation Break spaghetti pieces to match the lengths on the sheet, AC, AT, CT Try to arrange the pieces to make a triangle How many different triangles CAT could you form?

39. Investigation You should have been able to form exactly one triangle from the three pieces of spaghetti

40. Investigation Now break three more pieces to form the sides for the triangle FSH How many different triangles FSH could you form?
