Exploration #1 [br]Use the tools available to discover how to force an angle measurement. 1.) Place a New point anywhere to the right of A, on Ray BA. 2.) Create an angle with Given size 30 degrees cw, using A as the leg point & the new point you added as the vertex. 30 degrees cw 3) Find the intersection using the tool under point A tool. 4) Measure all of the sides of the triangle using the tool.
[size=150]Analysis #1[br]Compare your triangle with your partner & other classmates. Are they congruent? What measurement was set for the triangle initially? [br][br]What measurement did you add? What shortcut is represented? [/size]
Exploration #2[br]1.) Create an angle with Given size 30 degrees cw, using B as the leg point & A point as the vertex. 2.) Draw in Ray from vertex A of new angle through 30 degree to new point. 3)Use the intersection tool to locate & label the intersection of of the sides. 4) Measure all of the sides of the triangle.
