Answer:
Unit 3 Section 5 : Constructions and Angles
This section looks at the constructing triangles when you know the lengths of the three sides.
It also introduces a way of classifying triangles according to the types of angles in them.
Constructing triangles
If we know the lengths of the three sides of a triangle, we can construct it on paper using a ruler and a pair of compasses.
The slideshow below shows how to do this construction. Use the left and right arrow buttons to move through the slideshow.

Use the arrows on either side to move through the slideshow
We could have worked out that this triangle was 'right-angled' by testing it with Pythagoras' theorem:
Squaring the two shorter sides and adding them together gives 225 and squaring the longest
side also gives 225, so Pythagoras' theorem is true for this triangle - it must be right-angled.
What about other triangles? What can we find out about other types of triangle using Pythagoras' theorem?
Types of angles in triangles
When considering the angles in triangles, there are three types of triangle: right-angled, obtuse-angled and acute-angled.
A right-angled triangle has one 90° angle (the other two angles are acute).
An obtuse-angled triangle has one obtuse angle (the other two angles are acute).
An acute-angled triangle has three acute angles.
The examples below show one of each type of triangle.
In each case the two shorter sides are marked a and b and the longest side is marked c.
Using the lengths of the sides to work out the type of triangle
From the diagram above, we can use the following method to calculate the type of triangle:
Make c the length of the longest side, and calculate c².
Make a and b the length of the two shorter sides, and calculate a² + b².
Compare c² and a² + b².
Use the table below to work out the type of triangle:
c² = a² + b² right-angled triangle
c² > a² + b² obtuse-angled triangle
c² < a² + b² acute-angled triangle
Example Question
Use the method above to decide whether the triangles below are right-angled, obtuse-angled or acute-angled.

Question 1
For this question, you will need some paper and equipment for constructing triangles.
Each of the sketches in the question shows a triangle with the lengths of sides marked.
Construct the triangles on paper and measure the angles A, B and C.
Measure the angles as accurately as possible; the computer will allow for a small inaccuracy but not much!
(a) A =
°
B =
°
C =

(b) A =
°
B =
°
C =
°
(c) A =
°
B =
°
C =
