Essential Question How Can You Classify Triangles?

A.
Triangles can be classified by the lengths of their sides.

Equilateral triangle All sides are the same length.

Isosceles triangle At least two sides are the same length.

Guided Practices

Do You Understand?

Question 1.
Can a right triangle have an obtuse angle? Why or why not?

No, the right triangle has an obtuse angle.

Explanation:
In the above-given question,
given that,
the right triangle cannot be an obtuse angle.
since a right-angled triangle has one right angle, the other two angles are acute.
therefore, an obtuse-angled triangle can never have a right angle.
the side opposite the obtuse angle in a triangle is the longest.
so the right triangle is not an obtuse angle.

Question 2.
Can an equilateral triangle have only two sides of equal length? Why or why not?

No, an equilateral triangle has only two sides of equal length.

Explanation:
In the above-given question,
given that,
an equilateral triangle has all three sides are equal.
if only two sides are equal in length, then it is an isosceles triangle.
so the equilateral triangle does not have only two sides of equal length.

Explanation:
In the above-given question,
given that,
A pizza is divided into twelve equal slices.
Glenn and Ben each ate $$\frac{1}{6}$$ of the pizza on Monday.
The next day Ben ate $$\frac{1}{2}$$ of the pizza that was leftover.
1/6 + 1/2.
1/6 = 0.16.
1/2 = 0.5.
0.16 + 0.5 = 0.66.
so the number of slices of the original pizza remains = 2 pieces.

Explanation:
In the above-given question,
given that,
During a sale at the bookstore, books sold for $3, and magazines sold for$2.50.
Jan spent $16 and bought a total of 6 books and magazines. 6 x 3 =$18.
6 x $2.50 =$15.
$18 +$15 = 33.
$33 –$16 = $17. so the number of each did she buy =$17.

Essential Question How Can You Construct Arguments?

A.
Anika says, “If I draw a diagonal in a parallelogram, I will always form two right triangles.” Is she correct? Construct a math argument to justify your answer.

You can construct an argument using what you know about triangles and quadrilaterals.

What do I need to do to solve the problem?
I need to examine several cases, including special parallelograms. Then I need to state my conclusion and write a good argument to justify it.

Here’s my thinking..

B.
How can I construct an argument?
I can
• use math to explain my reasoning
• use the correct words and symbols.
• give a complete explanation.
• use a counterexample in my argument.

C.
Anika is incorrect. The triangles are right triangles only when the parallelogram is a rectangle or square. Rectangles and squares have four right angles. So, each triangle formed by drawing a diagonal will have a right angle and be a right triangle. But if the parallelogram does not have right angles, each triangle will not have a right angle.

Convince Me! Construct Arguments How can counterexamples be helpful in constructing an argument?

Explanation:
In the above-given question,
given that,
an equilateral triangle has all three sides has an equal length.
rhombus has all 4 sides are equal.
rhombus has all 4 equal right angles.
