Download this geogebra file from this link.
Procedure:
- Draw triangle ABC
- Identify the angles of the triangle.
- What is the sum of the angles of a triangle?
- Extend one side, students should recognize the exterior angle formed.
- Measure the exterior angle of a triangle
- Identify interior opposite angles for the exterior angle of a triangle. Mark the angle in purple and green colour.
- Move the sliders and observe the changes.
- How are the two angles together related to the exterior angle?
- Do you notice any relation between the exterior angle and the interior angles
Evaluation at the end of the activity
- What would be the measure of exterior angle for each vertex of an equilateral triangle?
- Does an exterior angle of a triangle is smaller than either of its interior opposite angles?
