Front

What are the side measures of a triangle in order from shortest to longest?

Back

MQ, MP, QP

Front

What is the range of possible measures for the third side of a triangle if two sides measure 10 and 7?

Back

3 < x < 17

Front

Which lengths cannot represent the sides of a triangle: 28, 30, 58?

Back

28, 30, 58 cannot represent the sides of a triangle.

Front

How do you determine if three lengths can form a triangle?

Back

The sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side.

Front

List the angles of a triangle in order from smallest to largest if they are ∠A, ∠C, ∠B.

Back

∠A, ∠C, ∠B.

Front

What is the Triangle Inequality Theorem?

Back

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that for any triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side.

Front

What is the definition of a triangle?

Back

A triangle is a polygon with three edges and three vertices.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the area of a triangle?

Back

Area = 1/2 * base * height.

Front

What is the relationship between the angles and sides of a triangle?

Back

In a triangle, the larger the angle, the longer the opposite side.

Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a triangle?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.
