Triangle Inequality Theorem: Determining if Angles and Side Measures Form a Triangle

The video tutorial explains how to determine if given angle or side measurements can form a triangle. It covers the Triangle Sum Theorem and its converse, demonstrating how to verify if three angles can form a triangle. The Triangle Inequality Theorem is also discussed, showing how to check if three side lengths can form a triangle using inequalities. Examples are provided to illustrate these concepts.

How do you determine if three angle measures can form a triangle?

Explain the Converse of the Triangle Sum Theorem.

If the sum of three angles is 210 degrees, what can you conclude about their ability to form a triangle?

What is the Triangle Inequality Theorem and how can it be used to determine if three side lengths can form a triangle?

What must be true about the sum of any two sides of a triangle compared to the third side?

Describe the process of checking if three given side lengths can form a triangle.

What conclusion can be drawn if one of the pairs of sides does not satisfy the Triangle Inequality Theorem?
