Warm-Up Exercises
5. A triangle has angle measures 82° and 34°. Find themeasure of the third angle.
ANSWER 64°
Warm-Up ExercisesEXAMPLE 1 Relate side length and angle measure
Draw an obtuse scalene triangle. Find the largest angle and longest side and mark them in red. Find the smallest angle and shortest side and mark them in blue. What do you notice?
SOLUTION
The longest side and largest angle are opposite each other.
The shortest side and smallest angle are opposite each other.
Warm-Up ExercisesEXAMPLE 2 Standardized Test Practice
SOLUTION
Draw a diagram and label the side lengths. The peak angle is opposite the longest side so, by Theorem 5.10, the peak angle is the largest angle.
Warm-Up ExercisesEXAMPLE 2 Standardized Test Practice
The angle measures sum is 180 , so the third angle measure is 180 – (46 + 59 ) = 75 . You can now label the angle measures in your diagram.

ANSWER
Warm-Up ExercisesEXAMPLE 3 Find possible side lengths
ALGEBRA
A triangle has one side of length 12 and another of length 8. Describe the possible lengths of the third side.
SOLUTION
Let x represent the length of the third side. Draw diagrams to help visualize the small and large values of x. Then use the Triangle Inequality Theorem to write and solve inequalities.
Warm-Up ExercisesEXAMPLE 3 Find possible side lengths
Small values of x Large values of x
x + 8 > 12
x > 4
8 + 12 > x
20 > x,or x < 20
The length of the third side must be greater than 4 and less than 20.
