Is it possible for these 3 side lengths make a triangle? yes or no and why?

3,6,9


no, because side length 1 + side length 2 = side 3. For 3 side lengths to make a triangle side 1 + side 2 > side 3.

100

I have a triangle with angle measurements of 35°, 90°, and 60°. is this possible?

no, because 35+ 60 + 90 > 180 

to be a triangle angle measurements have to equal 180.

100

Find the measure of each angle labeled X. Write the equation you used to solve.

equation : 

x + 90 + 30 = 180 

x + 120 = 180 

x = 60 

100

what is angle sum and the equation? 

Angle sum equation = (n - 2) x 180 

angle sum = all of the interior angles added up (total) 

100

What is the angle sum of a decagon? 


(10 - 2) x 180 

8 x 180 = 1,440 

all angles inside of a decagon = 1,440 degrees 

200

Is it possible for these 3 side lengths make a triangle? yes or no and why?

4,36,35

yes because for 3 side lengths to make a triangle side 1 + side 2 > side 3. 


4 + 35 > 36

200

I have a triangle with angle measurements of 25°, 70°, and 85°. is this possible?

yes, because 25 + 70 + 85 = 180 

to be a triangle angle measurements have to equal 180.

200

this is a picture of what type of angles?

complementary angles = 90 & looks like a right angle or a " L ". 

200

write an equation for both and find the measure of angle labeled X

#1 equation:

x + 30 = 180 

x = 150 degrees

#2 equation:

x + 125 = 180 

x = 55 degrees


200

Which numbers make a triangle? 

  1. 5, 6, 10


  1. 7, 3, 4 


  1. 3, 3, 4

1 & 3

300

A triangle has sides of 3 and 4. Amy says that one possibility for the unknown side length is 11. Do you agree with Amy? Justify your thinking.

no, because side length 1 + side length 2 < side 3. For 3 side lengths to make a triangle side 1 + side 2 > side 3.

300

What's the different been vertical angles and supplementary angles? 

vertical angles = opposite, equal 

supplementary angles = next to each other, add up to 180 

300

What is right and wrong from this problem?

Right: equation 

Wrong: subtracting 5x, should be dividing by 5 on both sides to get X by alone. 

300

if a piece of pie has a has a 22 degree angle and this angle plus the missing angle are supplementary angles. How can I set my equation up? 

x + 22 = 180 

x= 158 degrees

300

Which #'s are possible triangles? 

1, 2, 4 

400

Is it possible for these 3 side lengths make a triangle? yes or no and why?

8, 3, 9

yes because for 3 side lengths to make a triangle side 1 + side 2 > side 3. 


3 + 8 > 9

400

set up the equation & solve for X. 

equation: 

27 + x = 90 

x = 63 degrees 

400

Why is this problem incorrect?

1) equation is wrong

2) never needed 20 x's 

3) answer is wrong as well. 

400

What is angle measure? 

Angle measure = finding the measurement of one degree 


400

What is the difference between a polygon and a non-polygon? 

polygon: straight sides, closed, lines cannot intersect 

non-polygon: curved sides, open, lines intersect 



500

A triangle has sides of 6 and 11. Frank says that one possibility for the unknown side length is 8. Do you agree with Frank? Justify your thinking.

yes because for 3 side lengths to make a triangle side 1 + side 2 > side 3. 


6 + 8 > 11

500

set up equation & solve for x 

equation: 

x + x - 20 + 2x = 180 

4x - 20 = 180 

4x = 200 

x = 50 degrees 

500

Find the degree measure of angles labeled a-g. 

<a = 145 degrees

<b = 35 degrees

<c = 145 degrees

<d = 145 degrees 

<e = 35 degrees

<f  =145 degrees

<g = 35 degrees 

500

true of false: when setting up an equation you use what is given? 

true 

500

true or false: if I want to get x by itself 5x = 180 I subtracted 5 on both sides? 

false, divide by 5
