What is the name of the angle that measures 180 degrees?
Straight Angle
A triangle with 3 equal sides and angles.
equilateral triangle
The sum of all the interior angles of a triangle.
180o
State the triangle inequality theorem.
the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side
Angle Pairs that measure 90 degrees.
complementary
Identify the angle and determine its measurement.
Right angle which is 90o
Classify the triangle by its angles.
acute triangle
Determine the missing angle.
71o
Work:
82 + 27 + x = 180
109 + x = 180
x = 180 - 109
x = 71
Determine if a triangle can be drawn with the sides 11, 12, and 17.
yes
Work:
11 + 12 > 17
11 + 17 > 12
12 + 17 > 11
Angle Pairs that add up to 180 degrees.
supplementary
Identify the kind of angle.
obtuse angle
Classify the triangle by its sides.
isosceles triangle
Determine the missing angle.
49o
Work:
90 + 41 + x = 180
131 + x = 180
x = 180 - 131
x = 49
Determine if a triangle can be drawn with the sides 4, 8, and 15.
no
Work:
4 + 8 < 15
Identify the angle pair relationship and solve for x.
complementary, x = 53o
Work:
x + 37 = 90
x = 90 - 37
x = 53
The measure of an acute angle.
less than 90o
Classify the triangle by its sides and angles.
scalene, obtuse triangle
Use the angle sum rule to determine the value of x.
x = 12o
Work:
90 + 2x + 1 +5x + 5 = 180
96 + 7x = 180
7x = 84
x = 12
The missing side (x) must be at between ___ and ___ .
between 3 and 10
Work: 3 + 8 = 11, but if x is bigger than 10 it will become the longest side .
(and the inequality wont work)
Identify the angle pair relationship and solve for x.
vertical angles, x = 49
Work:
126 = x + 77
126-77 = x
49 = x
Identify the angle that doesn't belong.
26o
84o
13o
92o
92o angle
Work: the rest of the angles are acute (less than 90o)!
Classify triangle ABC by its sides, and identify the missing angle measure.
isosceles, x = 40
Work: Isosceles angles have to sides of the same measure, and two angles of the same measure. So x must be the same as the other angle, which is 40o.
Use the angle sum rule to determine the value of x.
x = 14
Work:
7x - 11 + 2x - 3 + 5x - 2 = 180
14x - 16 = 180
14x = 196
x = 14
Identify which set of numbers could NOT make a triangle.
(a)6,8,11
(b)9,12,19
(c)7,11,18
(d)5,6,7
(c)
Work: 7 + 11 = 18
This is not greater than the other side (18) so these numbers cannot form a triangle
Identify the angle pair relationship and find the measure of q.
supplementary, q = 22
Work:
(7q−46) + (3q+6) = 180
10q − 40 = 180
10q = 180 + 40
10q = 220
q = 22
