What are the three theorems that we have

discussed Yesterday? 

Triangle Inequality Theorem 2

angle, then the side opposite the larger angle is

triangle is greater than the length of the third side.

either remote interior angle.

 Let’s Have a Review 

What was our Topic Yesterday?

Exterior Angle Inequality

Theorem
The measure of an exterior angle is
greater than the measure of either
remote interior angle.
 

How can we get the measure of the

Exterior Angle?
Exterior angle is equal to the sum of its remote interior
angle.
Or
Get the value of the angle adjacent/linear pair with the
exterior angle and subtract it from 180º
 Suppose an alligator is hungry and decides to eat two fishes of
different size. The smaller fish is the red fish and the bigger fish is the
orange fish. Notice the opening of the mouth of the alligator when it
eats the fishes.
 

What can you say

about the opening of
the mouth of the
alligator when it eats
the red fish and when
it eats the orange
fish?
 Suppose you and one of your friends, Mark, are walking through a
haunted house at an amusement park and you come across a trap door.
You enter first the door and the length of opening is large enough for you
to fit in. Mark, who is taller and larger than you, then goes second and has
to open the door a bit wider so that he could go in. Let’s illustrate the
opening of the doors that you and Mark made.

What can you say

about the two
triangles formed
when you and Mark
entered the door?
 Hinge Theorem or SAS Inequality

If two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of a second

triangle, and the included angle in the first triangle is greater than the
included angle in the second, then the third side of the first triangle is
longer than the third side of the second.

flexible device on
which a door, lid, or
other swinging part
turns

∠ A >∠ E
If the three sides of the first triangle is congruent to its corresponding sides on
the second triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. Short lines (hatches)
are used to mark congruent sides.

G J
Since the sum of all the measurement of the angles of
a triangle is 180°, the value of x will not be exceeded
to 180°

So, the value of x

 Converse of Hinge Theorem or SSS
Inequality Theorem
If two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of a
second triangle, and the third side of the first triangle is longer
than the third side of the second, then the included angle in the
first triangle is larger than the included angle in the second
triangle.
