Triangle Inequalities
2014-11-05 18:18
This GeoGebra applet demonstrates the fundamental properties of triangle inequalities. By constructing triangle ABC along with its sides, midpoints, and related segments, it visually illustrates classic inequality relationships such as the sum of any two sides being greater than the third side and the difference of any two sides being less than the third side. The applet uses geometric objects inc
