How does technology allow you to test your ideas quickly?
What additional insights did you gain by dynamically changing the conditions?

Draw your own Triangle
- Option 1: Select three side lengths, this is upo to you. Label each side (e.g., 4 cm, 6 cm, 10 cm).
- Option 2: Select three angles that add up to 180° (e.g., 40°, 60°, 80°).
- Option 3: Combine side lengths and angles (e.g., two sides and one angle).
Construct your triangle (graph paper is best if you have it) using a ruler and a protractor. Label the length of the segments (sides) and all three angles.
Create a second triangle by slightly modifying one of the conditions (e.g., change a side length or angle).

Focus Question:

What patterns or rules do you notice about triangles?

You may take a photo of your drawn triangle or a video of you creating it and post it here. Respond to the focus question as a direct comment.

You are designing a triangular garden section, but the shape and dimensions are flexible.

Select your own initial conditions for the triangle (e.g., side lengths, angles, or a mix).
Test whether the triangle can be constructed using tools or technology.
Use at least three different triangles in your design.

Deliverable:
Present your design as a scaled drawing (by hand or with GeoGebra) and include a written or video/audio recorded explanation:

Why did you choose these dimensions?
How did your understanding of triangle construction help you?

Feel free to get creative here! If you design on paper, submit a photo. If you design on Desmos, grab a screenshot. Include the dimensions of each triangle. Include the lengths of each segment and the measurement of each angle.
