2 6.5 Lesson What You Will Learn ore Vocabulary indirect proof, p. 6 Previous proof inequality Write indirect proofs. List sides and angles of a triangle in order by size. Use the riangle Inequality heorem to find possible side lengths of triangles. Writing an Indirect Proof Suppose a student looks around the cafeteria, concludes that hamburgers are not being served, and explains as follows. t fi rst, I assumed that we are having hamburgers because today is uesday, and uesday is usually hamburger day. here is always ketchup on the table when we have hamburgers, so I looked for the ketchup, but I didn t see any. So, my assumption that we are having hamburgers must be false. he student uses indirect reasoning. In an indirect proof, you start by making the temporary assumption that the desired conclusion is false. y then showing that this assumption leads to a logical impossibility, you prove the original statement true by contradiction. ore oncept How to Write an Indirect Proof (Proof by ontradiction) Step Identify the statement you want to prove. ssume temporarily that this statement is false by assuming that its opposite is true. Step Step Reason logically until you reach a contradiction. Point out that the desired conclusion must be true because the contradiction proves the temporary assumption false. Writing an Indirect Proof Write an indirect proof that in a given triangle, there can be at most one right angle. Given Prove can have at most one right angle. REING You have reached a contradiction when you have two statements that cannot both be true at the same time. Step ssume temporarily that has two right angles. hen assume and are right angles. Step y the definition of right angle, m = m = 90. y the riangle Sum heorem (heorem 5.), m + m + m = 80. Using the Substitution Property of Equality, m = 80. So, m = 0 by the Subtraction Property of Equality. triangle cannot have an angle measure of 0. So, this contradicts the given information. Step So, the assumption that has two right angles must be false, which proves that can have at most one right angle. Monitoring Progress Help in English and Spanish at igideasmath.com. Write an indirect proof that a scalene triangle cannot have two congruent angles. 6 hapter 6 Relationships Within riangles

3 Relating Sides and ngles of a riangle Relating Side Length and ngle Measure raw 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? longest side smallest angle largest angle shortest side OMMON ERROR e careful not to confuse the symbol meaning angle with the symbol < meaning is less than. Notice that the bottom edge of the angle symbol is horizontal. he longest side and largest angle are opposite each other. he shortest side and smallest angle are opposite each other. he relationships in Example are true for all triangles, as stated in the two theorems below. hese relationships can help you decide whether a particular arrangement of side lengths and angle measures in a triangle may be possible. heorems heorem 6.9 riangle Longer Side heorem If one side of a triangle is longer than another side, then the angle opposite the longer side is larger than the angle opposite the shorter side. 8 5 Proof Ex. 4, p. 4 >, so m > m. heorem 6.0 riangle Larger ngle heorem If one angle of a triangle is larger than another angle, then the side opposite the larger angle is longer than the side opposite the smaller angle. Proof p m > m, so >. OMMON ERROR e sure to consider all cases when assuming the opposite is true. riangle Larger ngle heorem Given m > m Prove > Indirect Proof Step ssume temporarily that. hen it follows that either < or =. Step If <, then m < m by the riangle Longer Side heorem. If =, then m = m by the ase ngles heorem (hm. 5.6). Step oth conclusions contradict the given statement that m > m. So, the temporary assumption that cannot be true. his proves that >. Section 6.5 Indirect Proof and Inequalities in One riangle 7

4 Ordering ngle Measures of a riangle You are constructing a stage prop that shows a large triangular mountain. he bottom edge of the mountain is about feet long, the left slope is about 4 feet long, and the right slope is about 6 feet long. List the angles of KL in order from smallest to largest. K raw the triangle that represents the mountain. Label the side lengths. he sides from shortest to longest are K, KL, and L. he angles opposite these sides are L,, and K, respectively. So, by the riangle Longer Side heorem, the angles from smallest to largest are L,, and K. L K 4 ft 6 ft ft L Ordering Side Lengths of a riangle List the sides of EF in order from shortest to longest. First, find m F using the riangle Sum heorem (heorem 5.). m + m E + m F = m F = 80 m F = 8 F he angles from smallest to largest are E,, and F. he sides opposite these angles are F, EF, and E, respectively. So, by the riangle Larger ngle heorem, the sides from shortest to longest are F, EF, and E. Monitoring Progress Help in English and Spanish at igideasmath.com.

5 Using the riangle Inequality heorem Not every group of three segments can be used to form a triangle. he lengths of the segments must fit a certain relationship. For example, three attempted triangle constructions using segments with given lengths are shown below. Only the first group of segments forms a triangle When you start with the longest side and attach the other two sides at its endpoints, you can see that the other two sides are not long enough to form a triangle in the second and third figures. his leads to the riangle Inequality heorem. heorem heorem 6. riangle Inequality heorem he sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. + > + > + > Proof Ex. 47, p. 4 Finding Possible Side Lengths triangle has one side of length 4 and another side of length 9. escribe the possible lengths of the third side. REING You can combine the two inequalities, x > 5 and x <, to write the compound inequality 5 < x <. his can be read as x is between 5 and. Let x represent the length of the third side. raw diagrams to help visualize the small and large values of x. hen use the riangle Inequality heorem to write and solve inequalities. Small values of x Large values of x 4 x x x + 9 > > x x > 5 > x, or x < he length of the third side must be greater than 5 and less than.
