Objectives
- To construct a triangle given two sides and an angles
- To understand the given angle should be included angle when two sides are given
Estimated Time
20 minutes
Prerequisites/Instructions, prior preparations, if any
Prior understanding of point, lines and angles, elements of triangle, properties of triangle
Materials/ Resources needed
- Digital : Computer, geogebra application, projector.
- Non digital : Worksheet and pencil
- Geogebra files : “Triangle construction (1side-2angles)”
Download this geogebra file from this link.
Process (How to do the activity)
- For given 2 angles, if the angles add to 180o, can you construct the triangle?
- Is it possible to construct a triangle with only 2 given angles. What is the other parameter required for construction.
- If any one side is specified, along with 2 angles how many triangles are possible.
- If the side given is an included side, how many triangles are possible.
Evaluation at the end of the activity
- Why should the given side be included side?
- For the given A, A and S are the triangles AAS, ASA and SAA congruent triangles.
