We continued our study of inequality today by taking a look at inequalities in 1 triangle. We illustrated a couple of inequality theorems that involve just one triangle. The common sense one included pairing the largest angle with the side opposite it (this would be the longest angle). We did the same thing with the shortest side (opposite the smallest angle). We also demonstrated how to determine if a given set of sides will construct an actual triangle. After 3-4 examples of each idea, the students got started on their homework.
