					 What are two things needed to classify a triangle?

					  Equilateral triangle					 
					
					 What is the name for the triangle that has 3 congruent sides? 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. 					 
					
					 Explain the triangle sum theorem.

					  Vertex or vertices					 
					
					 What are the three points that join at the sides of a triangle? 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  Hypotenuse					 
					
					 What is the triangle's side called if its opposite from a side that has a right angle? 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  One exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the other two nonadjacent interior angles. 					 
					
					 Explain the exterior angle theorem. 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  x = 2.285					 
					
					 Find x using the corollary to the triangle sum theorem.  
					Interior angles: 90, 14x + 36, 7x + 6.  |

					  Adjacent sides					 
					
					 What are two sides called when they share a common vertex? 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  Legs					 
					
					 What are the sides that form a right angle in a right triangle or are equal to each other in an isosceles triangle? 
					 | 
				
				
						
					 
					  A right triangle is given with its other two angles missing. The two missing angles must be added together and then set to equal the right angle to find the missing variables and values. 					 
					
					 Explain the corollary triangle sum theorem.
