1. Triangles and Angles “I can classify triangles by sides and angles.” “I can find angle measures inside triangles.” By PresenterMedia.comPresenterMedia.com

2. By sides Names of Triangles Equilateral All sides  Isosceles 2 sides  Scalene No sides 

3. By angles Names of Triangles Obtuse 1 obtuse angle Equiangular 3 congruent angles Right 1 right angle Acute 3 acute angles

4. Mix and Match Use two names to describe this:

5. Mix and Match Use two names to describe this:

6. Mix and Match Use two names to describe this:

7. It can be proven: Equilateral triangles are always equiangular; And equiangular triangles are always equilateral.

8. A B C Always label clockwise; always go in alphabetical order.

9. Anatomy What are the parts called? A corner is called a vertex. Two or more corners are called vertices.

10. Anatomy What are the parts called? Two sides sharing a common vertex are adjacent. “next to”

11. Anatomy: Legs Right triangles and isosceles triangles have legs. leg hypotenuse base

12. Construction workers lay out a right angle Its called the 3-4-5 method.

13. Interior or Exterior Angles Interior Exterior

14. If you add together all the angles of a triangle, the sum will always be 180 degrees. TST Triangle Sum Theorem In other words… If you know 2 angles of a triangle, you can always find the third.

15. “Proof” Convincing argument why it must be true.
