Constructing Triangles and Loci
  1. 3 properties that are needed to construct a triangle
    1. SAS-Side, Angle, Side
      1. SSS-All three sides
        1. ASA-Angle, Side, Angle
        2. Constructing Triangles Worked Examples
          1. SAS
            1. Draw a triangle with sides of 4cm and 6cm and an angle of 40°.
              1. 1) Draw the longest side using a ruler
                1. 2) Label the ends A and B
                  1. 3) Measure a 40° angle from point A and draw a 4cm line
                    1. 4) Label this line C
                      1. 5)Draw a line from point B to point C
                        1. There you have a finished triangle
            2. ASA
              1. Draw a triangle with angles 40° and 70° and with a side of length 8 cm
                1. 1) Draw an 8cm line, this will be the bottom of the triangle
                  1. 2) Label the ends A and B
                    1. 3) Measure an angle of 40° from point A. Draw a long line, label this C
                      1. 4) Measure and draw an angle of 70° from point B to the 40° line
                        1. 5) Rub out the excess line
                          1. You have a finished triangle
              2. SSS
                1. Draw a triangle with side lengths of 3cm, 5cm and 6cm
                  1. 1) Draw the longest side, a 6cm line
                    1. 2) Label the ends A and B
                      1. 3) Open the compasses to 5cm, put your compass on point A and draw an arc above the 6cm line
                        1. 4) Open the compass to 3cm, put your compass on point B and draw an above the 6cm line
                          1. 5) Join the arc to points A and B, using a ruler
                            1. You have a finished triangle
              3. Equipment needed to construct triangles
                1. Compass
                  1. Ruler
                    1. Pencil
                      1. Protactor
                      2. Loci
                        1. Farmer Smith has tied a cow around a post on a rope 4 m long. What the locus of the cow as it moves around the post?
                          1. 4m, it will stay the same all the way round the circle
                          2. A flowerbed runs along the grass between A and B. The edge of the flowerbed is 1 m from the grass. How would you draw an accurate diagram showing the flowerbed, using a scale of 1 cm:1 m?
                            1. Draw a line parallel to AB 1 cm from AB. Shade in the area between this line and the line AB
                              1. The edge of the flowerbed is the locus from the line AB, because it is at a set distance from the line
                          3. Constructing the perpendicular from a point to a line
                            1. 1.Open a pair of compasses so the distance is slightly longer than the distance from the point to the line. Place the compass at the point and draw two arcs, crossing the line either side of the point
                              1. 2. Put the compass and the first point on the line, point A and draw an arc below the line. Repeat from point B without changing the width of your compass so the arcs cross to create point C.
                                1. 3. Place a ruler between the point and C. Use a ruler to connect the point to the line. The line is at a right angle to AB.
                            2. Constructing the perpendicular from a point on the line
                              1. 1. P is a point on a line. Construct a perpendicular at P.
                                1. 2. Put the compass point at P. Draw two arcs crossing the line either side of P.
                                  1. 3. Put the compass point at A the first point on the line and draw an arc below the line. Repeat from point B without changing the width of your compass so the arcs cross to create point C.
                                    1. 4. Use a ruler to connect point P to where the two arcs cross, at C. The line PC is at a right angle to AB.
