Triangles Inequalities and The Hinge Theorem
Understanding the inequalities in triangles using the Hinge Theorem. The theorem explains how the length of the third side of a triangle relates to the included angles and congruent sides in different triangle configurations. Explore problems that involve applying the Hinge Theorem and its converse in determining relationships between sides and angles in triangles.

5-7 Inequalities in Two Triangles
The Hinge Theorem (SAS Inequality Thm.) If two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle, and the included angles are not congruent, then the longer third side is opposite the larger included angle
Converse of the Hinge Theorem (SSS Inequality) If two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle, and the third sides are not congruent, then the larger included angle is opposite the longer third side
Problem 3: Using the Converse of the Hinge Theorem
