Triangles Card Sort

Triangle Theorems & Properties - Practice / Review:This sorting activity will help your students practice using properties of triangles. They will classify each triangle as equilateral, isosceles, scalene, or impossible using cards with a mix of given information (diagrams, side lengths, angle measures, and ordered pairs for vertices on a coordinate plane) so that they have to use a variety of skills and concepts to sort them properly.The following concepts are used to determine types of triangles:* Distance Formula* Base Angles of Isosceles Triangles* Triangle Sum Theorem* Exterior Angle Theorem* Triangle Inequality Theorem* Vertical AnglesHere's what's included:- 4 quick-fold pockets to hold sorted cards- 30 cards with a mix of diagrams, side lengths, angle measures, and ordered pairs representing vertices- 4 "answer cards" that list which cards should be in each pocket- optional "sorting mat" for those who prefer a learning station formatStudents will cut out and sort the cards
