The name of this angle (3 possible answers).


What is:

-∠NML

-∠LMN

-∠M

100

A triangle with 3 equal sides and angles.

What is an equilateral triangle?

100

The sum of all the interior angles of a triangle.


What is 180o?

100

State the triangle inequality theorem.

What is "the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side"?

100

Identify the angle pair relationship.


What is complementary?

Work: 59 + 31 = 90

200

Identify the angle and determine its measurement.


What is a right angle which is 90o?

200

Classify the triangle by its angles.


What is an acute triangle?

200

Determine the missing angle.


What is 71o?

Work: 

82 + 27 + x = 180

109 + x = 180

x = 180 - 109

x = 71

200

Determine if a triangle can be drawn with the sides 11, 12, and 17.

What is yes? 

Work: 

11 + 12 > 17

11 + 17 > 12

12 + 17 > 11

200

Identify the angle pair relationship.


What is supplementary?

Work: 146 + 34 = 180o

300

Identify the kind of angle.


What is an obtuse angle?

300

Classify the triangle by its sides.


What is an isosceles triangle?

300

Determine the missing angle.


What is 49o?

Work: 

90 + 41 + x = 180

131 + x = 180

x = 180 - 131

x = 49

300

Determine if a triangle can be drawn with the sides 4, 8, and 15.

What is no?

Work:

4 + 8 < 15

300

Identify the angle pair relationship and solve for x.


What is complementary, x = 53o

Work: 

x + 37 = 90

x = 90 - 37

x = 53

400

The measure of an acute angle.

What is less than 90o?

400

Classify the triangle by its sides and angles.


What is scalene, obtuse triangle?

400

Use the angle sum rule to determine the value of x.


What is x = 12o?

Work:

90 + 2x + 1 +5x + 5 = 180

96 + 7x = 180

7x = 84

x = 12

400

The missing side (x) must be at between ___ and ___ .


What is 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)

400

Identify the angle pair relationship and solve for x.


What is vertical angles, x = 49

Work: 

126 = x + 77

126-77 = x

49 = x

500

Identify the angle that doesn't belong.

26

84o

13o

92o

What is the 92o angle?

Work: the rest of the angles are acute (less than 90o)!

500

Classify triangle ABC by its sides, and identify the missing angle measure.


What is 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.

500

Use the angle sum rule to determine the value of x.


What is x = 14?

Work:

7x - 11 + 2x - 3 + 5x - 2 = 180

14x - 16 = 180

14x = 196

x = 14

500

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

What is (c)?

Work: 7 + 11 = 18

This is not greater than the other side (18) so these numbers cannot form a triangle


500

Identify the angle pair relationship and find the measure of q.


What is supplementary, q = 22

Work: 

(7q−46) + (3q+6) = 180

10q − 40 = 180

10q = 180 + 40

10q = 220

q = 22
