Can a triangle have angle measures of 85, 61, and 34? Explain why or why not.
Yes, they add up to 180 degrees.
Angles that share a side and vertex. Draw a picture to model this.
Adjacent angles
I am a triangle All of my angles are less than 90 degrees.
acute triangle
Two angles are supplementary. If one angle measures 88 degrees, what is the measure of the other angle?
92 degrees
Angles that add up to 180 degrees. Draw a picture to model this. Label the measure of each angle.
Supplementary angles
Two angles in a triangle measure 50 and 65 degrees. Find the third angle. Then give a name for the triangle based on its angles.
65 degrees; acute triangle
Draw an equilateral triangle. Label the measure of each side AND angle.
Triangle must three congruent sides. Each angle should be labeled 60 degrees.
Angles that add up to 90 degrees. Draw a picture to model this. Label the measure of each angle.
Complementary angles.
An isosceles triangle has two congruent sides that are shorter than the third side. If the two shorter sides both measure 15 meters, what must be true of the longest side?
The longest side must have a measure less than 30 meters.
Draw two right triangles that are NOT congruent. Label the angles in each triangle that would be reasonable.
Both triangles must have one 90 degree angle. The sum of the other two angles in each triangle should be 90 degrees. (Ex: 45 & 45, 60 & 30, 75 and 15)
I am a triangle. My angles have measure of (x - 40), (3x - 20) and 60 degrees. What is the value of x? Hint: Draw a picture, label each angle, & write an equation!
x=45 degrees
Draw an isosceles triangle. Label side lengths and angle measures that are reasonable.
Triangle must have two or three sides that are the same length. Angle measures must have a sum of 180. The longest side must be less than the sum of the 2 shorter sides.
Brandon draws an isosceles triangle that has one 160 angle. What is the measurement of each of the other two angles in the triangle?
180 - 160 = 20 20 / 2 = 10 Each angle is 10 degrees
