Theorem 3 (Autosaved)

The document outlines class rules and introduces the Triangle Inequality Theorem, which states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. It provides objectives for the lesson, examples of applying the theorem, and exercises to determine possible lengths of triangle sides. The document emphasizes understanding and applying theorems to real-life situations.

CLASS RULES
1. Keep quite unless you are ask to speak.
2. Do not do unnecessary things that might
distract the class.
3. Respect each other.
4. Actively participate in the class -plus points.
Triangle inequality theorem 1
• if one side of a triangle is longer
than a second side, then the angle
opposite the longer side is larger
than the angle opposite the shorter
side.
Triangle inequality theorem 2
• if one angle of a triangle is larger
than a second angle, then the side
opposite the larger angle is longer
than the side opposite the smaller
angle.

Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the learners must be able to:

a.demonstrate understanding of theorems 3 on one


triangle inequalities;
b. apply triangle inequality theorem 3 (S1+S2+S3) on
one triangle inequalities to find measures of angles
and sides of a triangle; and
c.manifest appreciation in applying theorems 3 on one
triangle inequalities to real-life situations.
Triangle Inequality
Theorem 3 (S1 +S2
>S3)
 The sum of the lengths of any
two sides of a triangle is greater
than the length of the third side.

The triangle inequality theorem 3
states that:
e+f>g
e+g>f
f+g>e
Example 1
Check whether it is possible to form a triangle
with lengths 13 cm, 14 cm, and 22 cm.
Solution:
For 13 cm, 14 cm and 22 cm to be
considered as side lengths of a triangle,
these should satisfy the inequality theorem
(S1 +S2 >S3).
e+f> 13+14> T
g 22

e + g > 13+22> T
f 14

f+g> 14+22> T
e 13
Example 2
Given the ∆ABC with measures of 8, 10, and
14cm. Check whether it is possible to form a
triangle.

a = 8, c = 10, b = 14
Example 3
For 8 cm, 20 cm and 11
cm to be considered as
side lengths of a
triangle, these should
satisfy the inequality
theorem (S1+S2+S3). s = 8, m = 11, a = 20
s+a>m a+ m>c s+m>a

8+20>1 20+11> 8+11>20


1 8
28>10 31+8 19>20
TRUE TRUE FALSE
Applying theorem 3. Considering x
is our unknown side, Therefore, x
must be greater than one side and
x must be less than the second
side.
To find the possible lengths of
the third side, we can use this
formula:
𝐷𝑖𝑓𝑓𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒
𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑡ℎ𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑡𝑤𝑜 𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 <
𝑈𝑛𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤𝑛 𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑡ℎ 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒
𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑟𝑑 𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒 < 𝑆𝑢𝑚 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒
Example 1
If two of the sides of a triangular frame measure 7

the third side 𝑥.


inches and 11 inches, find the possible lengths of

𝐷𝑖𝑓𝑓𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑡ℎ𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒


𝑡𝑤𝑜 𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 < 𝑥 < 𝑆𝑢𝑚 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑡ℎ𝑠 𝑜𝑓
𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑡𝑤𝑜 𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠
11 − 7 < 𝑥 < 11 + 7 Use Substitution
side 𝑥 could be any value between 5
To check whether the length of the third

inches and 17 inches, choose one value in


the interval and apply the Triangle
Inequality Theorem 3 (S1 +S2 >S3).
Consider, 𝑥 = 10 inches.
7+11>10 7+10>11 11+10>7
23>10 18>15 25>8 True
True True

Therefore, the length of the third side can be


any value between 5 inches and 17 inches.
Example 2
Determine the range of possible
lengths of the third side of a triangle.

k=33 cm; l = 22 cm; m=?


k=33 cm; l = 22 cm; m=?

Solution:
(k-l) <m< (k+l)
(33-22) <m< (33+22)
11<m< 55

⸫ The possible range of m is between 12 and 54.
