Triangle Construction and Properties

Maria Miller from Math Mammoth explains how to draw various types of triangles using a ruler and compass. She covers equilateral triangles, triangles with given angles, triangles with two angles and a side, triangles with two sides and an angle, and triangles with three sides. The lesson highlights the conditions under which a unique triangle can be drawn or when no triangle is possible.
