Read the written instructions carefully, and study the diagrams. Then view the videos which show step-by-step the construction details. First, you will see how to construct triangles with specific parts. Sometimes the lengths of the sides will be given; sometimes an angle measure will also be stated. To think about constructing a triangle given its three sides, remember the triangle inequality theorem. It states that the sum of the two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side. This statement lets you know that the other two sides will intersect somewhere off the third side. Follow the directions given to you to complete this assignment.
