    If two angles in a triangle each measure 4
    ​ 0°​, the triangle Construct
    is an obtuse triangle. Arguments
    Tell how you can construct a math argument to
    justify the statement above. To help you find the
    measure of the third angle,
    • I can make a drawing to support my argument.
    remember that the sum of the
    • I can make my explanation clear and complete. measures of the angles in a
    triangle is 180˚.
    Construct a math argument to justify the statement.

    The sum of the measures of two angles is ​2 × 40° = 80°​.


    The measure of the third angle is ​180° − 80° = 100°​. An
    angle that measures more than ​90°​is an obtuse angle,
    100
    so the third angle is obtuse. Since the triangle
    contains an obtuse angle, it is an obtuse
    triangle.

    Construct Arguments 
    Samantha says, “A triangle can have three right angles.” Sample answers are given.
    1. List some properties of a triangle. How does knowing the
    properties of a triangle help in constructing your argument? Think about whether
    properties, definitions, and
    Properties: 3 sides, 3 angles, sum of measures of diagrams would help you
    angles is ​180°​. Knowing the properties of a triangle construct arguments.
    provides support for my argument.

    2. How can you use a drawing to construct an argument?


    I can use a drawing to support or disprove my
    argument.

    3. Is Samantha correct? Construct a math argument to justify


    your answer.
    No; The sum of the measures of the angles of a
    triangle is ​180°​. So, you cannot have a triangle that
    has three right angles because the angles would have
    a total measure of ​3 × 90° = 270°​.

    Performance Task
    Stained-Glass Window 
    Quentin took a picture of a stained- 1 13
    glass window he saw at the library. He 5 7 9
    is using what he has learned about 6 8
    3 14
    triangles to classify the triangles in the
    2 15
    window. Sample answers are given.
    11
    4. Construct Arguments  Which 10 12
    triangles are right triangles? Construct 4 16
    a math argument to justify your
    answer.

    Triangles 1, 4, 5, 9, 10, 12, 13, 16; These are


    right triangles because they each have a right
    angle.

    5. Construct Arguments  Which triangles could be right


    isosceles triangles? Construct a math argument to
    justify your answer.

    Triangles 4 and 16; These triangles each have


    a right angle and two sides that look to be the
    same length.
    6. Construct Arguments  Which triangles are obtuse
    isosceles triangles? Construct a math argument to
    Using definitions of
    justify your answer. geometric figures can help
    you to construct
    Triangle 11; This is an isosceles obtuse triangle arguments.
    because it has an obtuse angle and two sides
    that are the same length.

    7. Be Precise  How should Quentin classify Triangles 6, 7,


    and 8? Use the most precise name you can.

    These are equilateral triangles because all sides


    are the same length.
    8. Use Structure  Choose a triangle that was not listed
    in Exercises 4–7. Use structure to classify it by both its
    angles and sides.

    Sample answer: Triangle 2 is an obtuse scalene


    triangle.
