Learning Objectives

  • Identifying a triangle and understanding its formation
  • Recognizing all parameters related to triangles
  • Understanding formation of triangles based on sides and angles
  • Establishing relationship between parameters associated with triangles

Teaching Outlines

Concept 1: Formation of a triangle, elements of a triangle and its measures

Formation of a geometric shape with minimum number of lines is introduced.The key geometric concepts that are associated with it and its properties are elaborated.

Activities
Formation of a triangle: A plane figure formed by three intersecting lines.
Elements and measures in triangle: Parameters that are associated and measured in a triangle.
Interior and exterior angles in triangle: Angles formed when a triangle is formed.

Concept 2: Types of triangles based on sides and angles

Triangles can be based on its elements such as sides and angles. Students are able to recognize these formations.

Activities
Types of triangles based on sides: Formation of a triangle depends on measures of sides.
Types of triangles based on angles: Formation of a triangle depends on measures of angles.

Concept 3: Theorems and properties

Properties of triangles are logically proved by deductive method. Relations ships between angles of a triangle when a triangle is formed are recognized and understood.

Activities
Angle sum property : Relation between angles formed inside a triangle
Exterior angle theorem: Relation between angles formed inside a triangles and angles outside a triangle

Concept 4: Construction of triangles

Concept 5: Concurrency in triangles
