Lesson1.5 – Triangle Vocabulary Homework: 1.5/1-14, 17-21, 24-26 Quiz Friday on Lesson 1.3 – 1.5
Assumptions • To assume something is to accept it as true without facts or proof. • When looking at a diagram, be careful notto assume anything
Things you may assume • Lines are straight • If two lines intersect, they intersect at one point • Points on a line are collinear • All points shown in a diagram are coplanar unless additional planes are shown
Things you may NOT assume Just because they look: • parallel • two lines or segments are NOT necessarily parallel • perpendicular • two lines are NOT necessarily perpendicular • Congruent • pairs of angles, segments, or polygons are NOT necessarily congruent
Classifying Triangles • A triangle has three sides and three angles • The three angles always add to 180° • There are special names given to triangles that tell how many sides or angles are equal. • There can be 3, 2 or no equal sides/angles: • Sides: Equilateral, Isosceles and Scalene • Angles: Acute, Right, Obtuse, and Equiangular
Classify by Sides Equilateral Triangle Three equal sides Isosceles Triangle Two equal sides Scalene Triangle No equal sides
Classify by Angles Acute Triangle All angles are between 0°and 90° Right Triangle Has exactly one right angle (=90°) Obtuse Triangle Has one angle between 90° and 180° Equiangular Triangle Three equal angles, always 60°
Combining the Names • Sometimes a triangle will have two descriptive names. • One for angles & one for sides For example: • Right Isosceles Triangle • It has a right angle (90°), and also two equal angles • Can you guess what the measure of the equal angles are?
Can you have an: • YES • NO • NO • YES • NO • Scalene right triangle? • Obtuse acute triangle? • Equiangular scalene triangle? • Isosceles right triangle? • Equilateral obtuse triangle?
Levels of making a picture • Sketch • To create the picture with only a pencil; freehand • Draw • To use measuring tools: ruler and protractor • Construct • To use construction tools: compass and straightedge These terms will determine what tools, if any, you are required/allowed to use.
