This chapter dives into the fundamental concepts of inequalities through various examples and properties. By comparing the measures of angles and segments, you can draw conclusions using inequality signs such as <, >, or =. It covers key properties, including the relationships between segments when certain conditions are met, as well as the Exterior Angle Inequality Theorem. This theorem illustrates how the measure of an exterior angle is always greater than the measures of the two non-adjacent interior angles.
