| + | * '''Objectives''' |
| + | # Recognize the triangles based on the measures of the sides |
| + | * '''Pre-requisites''' |
| + | # Prior knowledge of point, lines, angles, elements of triangle |
| + | * '''Resources needed''' |
| + | # Digital : Computer, geogebra application, projector. |
| + | # Non digital : Worksheet and pencil. |
| + | # Geogebra files : “5. Types of triangle by sides.ggb” |
| + | * '''How to do''' |
| + | # Students should recognize the elements of a triangle – sides and angles. |
| + | # What are the measures of the sides of a triangle, are the measurements of the sides equal or different. |
| + | # Establish that different triangles are formed with the different measures of the sides: when all sides are different, when any two sides are equal and when all sides are equal. |
| + | # Children can note the measures of the sides in the worksheet for different triangles to conclude the type of triangles based on the sides. |
| + | # Is the triangle formed for any measure of the sides. When does the triangle not form. What is the relation between the 3 sides for the triangle to be formed. |
| + | |
| + | |
| + | * '''Evaluation at the end of the activity''' |
| + | # Are children able to recognize the types of triangles when the sides are specified. |
| + | # Have children been able to conclude when a triangle is formed given the three sides. |

| + | * '''Objectives''' |
| + | # Recognize the triangles based on the measures of the sides |
| + | * '''Pre-requisites''' |
| + | # Prior knowledge of point, lines, angles, elements of triangle |
| + | * '''Resources needed''' |
| + | # Digital : Computer, geogebra application, projector. |
| + | # Non digital : Worksheet and pencil. |
| + | # Geogebra files : “6. Types of triangle by angle.ggb” |
| + | * '''How to do''' |
| + | # Identify the angle types in the triangle. |
| + | # Can the angles in the triangle be of different type – obtuse or right angle. |
| + | # Establish the types of triangles based on the types of angles that form the triangle – when all angles are acute angles, when one of the angle is a right angle and when one of the angle is obtuse angle. |
| + | # Is it possible to have a triangle with two right angle or two obtuse angle. Why or why not? |
| + | # What kind of a triangle is formed when all the angles are equal? For what measure of the angle such a triangle is formed? |
| + | # Can a triangle be formed with a reflex angle. |
| + | # Measure the angles for different triangle, recognize the types of angles and conclude the type of triangle. |
| + | |
| + | * '''Evaluation at the end of the activity''' |
