Application Given the figure below, explain why. StatementsReasons 1. 2. 3. 1. 2. 3.
5
Theorem Theorem 5-10: If two sides of a triangle are not congruent, then the larger angle lies opposite the longer side.
6
Example List the angles of the following figure in order from smallest to largest.
7
Theorem Theorem 5-11: If two angles of a triangle are not congruent, then the longer side lies opposite the larger angle.
8
Sides of a Triangle List the sides of the following triangle in order from shortest to longest. Determine which segment is shortest in the following diagram.
9
Theorem Theorem 5-12: Triangle Inequality Theorem: The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.
