Constructing triangles is a fun and interesting activity that involves using tools like a ruler, compass, and protractor to create different types of triangles. A triangle is a shape with three sides, three angles, and three vertices. There are different ways to construct triangles based on the given measurements or properties.

This Powerpoint gives step by step instructions to construct SSS, SAS and ASA triangles.

Constructing triangles is not only a fun activity, but it also helps us understand the properties and measurements of triangles. By experimenting with different measurements, we can explore how changing the lengths of the sides and angles affects the shape of the triangle.
