Chapter 7: GEOMETRYSection 3 TRIANGLES
California Standards • Measurement and Geometry 2.0: • Students identify and describe the properties of 2-dimensional figures. • Measurement and Geometry 2.3: • Identify angles as VERTICAL, ADJACENT, COMPLEMENTARY, or SUPPLEMENTARY and provide descriptions of these terms.
Key Vocabulary • TRIANGLE: A polygon formed by three straight segments. • SCALENE: Possessing NO sides that are EQUAL in measurement. • ISOSCELES: Possessing 2 sides and 2 angles that are EQUAL to each other. • EQUILATERAL: Possessing ALL sides EQUAL to each other. • ACUTE: A term that refers to the measure of an angle. • If an angle is ACUTE, it simply means that the angles possesses a measure GREATER than 0° but LESS than 90°. • RIGHT: A term that refers to an angle equaling EXACTLY 90° • OBTUSE: A term that refers to the measure of an angle. • If an angle is OBTUSE, it simply means that the angles possesses a measure GREATER than 90° but LESS than 180°. • CONGRUENT: CONGRUENT is a term that is used to describe EQUALITY. • Here, if sides or angles are CONGRUENT, they possess the same measurement.
What is a TRIANGLE? • A TRIANGLE is a polygon. A polygon is a closed geometric figure made of line segments. A TRIANGLE is also known as a TRIGON. This means its made up of 3 line segments. • TRIANGLES are traditionally named with 3 capital letters. These 3 lettered points are the vertices or endpoints of the line segments. • TRIANGLES possess 3 ANGLES and 3 SIDES. • The TOTAL Interior Measure of a TRIANGLE is 180°. • Basic Formula: Angle 1 + Angle 2 + Angle 3 = 180°
CLASSIFYING TRIANGLES BY SIDES • Triangles can be classified by the MEASURE of their SIDES. • Using identified sides or measuring tools, you can use the measures of the sides to correctly classify a triangle. • Once the side measures are found, TRIANGLES fall into one of the following categories: • SCALENE: NOT A SINGLE SIDE MEASURES THE SAME. • ISOSCELES: A PAIR of sides is EQUAL to one another. • EQUILATERAL: ALL 3 sides are EQUAL to each other.
CLASSIFYING TRIANGLES BY ANGLES • Triangles can be classified by the MEASURE of their ANGLES. • Using identified angles or measuring tools, you can use the measures of the angles to correctly classify a triangle. • Once the angle measures are found, TRIANGLES fall into one of the following categories: • ACUTE: The measure of the ANGLES all are UNDER 90°. • OBTUSE: The measure of one of the ANGLES is over 90° but under 180°. • RIGHT: The measure of one of the ANGLES is EXACTLY 90°.
MEASURES of a TRIANGLE • The INTERIOR Measure of a Triangle ALWAYS equals 180°. • Any combination of angle measures can be combined. • Recall that the 3 angles will ALWAYS result in 180°. • The BASIC FORMULA is the following: • Angle 1 + Angle 2 + Angle 3 = 180° • Examples: 30° + 70° + 80° = 180° (ACUTE Triangle) 45° + 45° + 90° = 180° (RIGHT Triangle) 20°+45°+115° = 180° (OBTUSE Triangle)
SOLVING FOR MISSING ANGLES • When you are solving for the missing angle within a Triangle, you will need to work carefully, using ALL known information and the BASIC FORMULA. Simple Algebra will also be used to solve correctly. • Example: There is a triangle where Angle 1 is 40° and Angle 2 is 65°. What is the measure of Angle 3? • Angle 1 + Angle 2 + Angle 3 = 180° -Basic Formula • 40° + 65° + Angle 3 = 180° -Drop in Known Angles • 105° + Angle 3 = 180° -Known Angles are combined -105° -105° -Solve Algebraically • Angle 3 = 75° -Result is the answer. • 40° + 65° + 75° = 180° -Double Check • 180° = 180° -Answer is CORRECT
Finding MORE Angles • A Triangle exists. Angle 1 measures 85°. Angle 2 measures 25°.Please find the measure for Angle 3. • Angle 1+Angle 2+Angle 3=180° -Basic Formula is used • 85° + 25°+ Angle 3 = 180° -Drop in the known Angle Measure • 110° + Angle 3 = 180° -Solve Algebraically -110°-110° • Angle 3 = 70°-Result is your answer • A Triangle exists. Angle 1 measures 47°. Angle 2 measures 78°.Please find the measure for Angle 3. • Angle 1+Angle 2+Angle 3=180° -Basic Formula is used • 47° + 78°+ Angle 3 = 180° -Drop in the known Angle Measure • 125° + Angle 3 = 180° -Solve Algebraically -125°-125° • Angle 3 = 55°-Result is your answer
QUICK REVIEW • Classifying Triangles by SIDE Measures: • There are 4 ways an Angle can be classified as: • SCALENE: Not a single side is EQUAL. All are DIFFERENT Measures. • ISOSCELES: 2 Sides are EQUAL in Measure. • EQUILATERAL: ALL 3 sides are EQUAL in Measure. • Classifying Triangles by ANGLE Measures: • There are 4 ways an Angle can be classified as: • ACUTE: Angles within the Triangle measure UNDER 90°. • OBTUSE: One angle within the Triangle is Over 90° but Under 180°. • RIGHT: EXACTLY 90°. • Interior Measure of a TRIANGLE: Angle 1+Angle 2+Angle 3 = 180°
