Learning Objectives
Grade F
To investigate and then remember that the angles in a triangle add to 180o.
How do we know that the angles in an equilateral triangle will always be 60o?

Grade E
To investigate and then remember that the sum of the angles in a quadrilateral is 360o.
How can you show that the angles in a quadrilateral always add to 360o?

To be able to define and then calculate the exterior angle of a triangle and quadrilateral.

Homework
Learning Objectives for next lesson:
Grade E
To be able to construct Side-Angle-Side (SAS) & Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) triangles.
Are there are triangles that you can see cannot be constructed, even without trying?
