Key Topics to Revise

1

Triangle Basics and Types

  • A triangle consists of three vertices (corner points) and three sides (line segments)
  • Triangles are denoted using the symbol △ followed by vertex names (e.g., △ABC)
  • Three angles are formed at the vertices, denoted as ∠A, ∠B, and ∠C
2

Triangle Construction Methods

  • Use compass and ruler for accurate constructions
  • For equilateral triangles: Draw base, then use compass to create arcs of equal radius from both ends
  • For any triangle with given sides: Draw base, create arcs from endpoints with given radii, mark intersection
3

Triangle Inequality and Existence

  • Not all sets of three lengths can form a triangle
  • Triangle inequality: Each side must be smaller than the sum of the other two sides
  • Only need to check if longest side < sum of other two sides
4

Angle Properties and Relationships

  • Sum of interior angles is always 180°
  • Exterior angle equals sum of two non-adjacent interior angles
  • In construction with two angles, their sum must be less than 180°
