Description

This math clip art image serves as a title card for the process of constructing a regular triangle. It introduces a new section in the series on regular polygons, shifting focus from definitions and properties to the practical application of geometric principles.

The use of a dedicated title card for this topic emphasizes the importance of construction in geometry education. It signals to students that they're about to engage in a hands-on, step-by-step process that will bring together their understanding of regular polygons with practical geometric skills. This approach helps to maintain student engagement and clearly delineates different aspects of the learning process.

Teacher's Script: "Now that we understand what regular polygons are, we're going to learn how to create one ourselves. We'll start with the simplest regular polygon: the equilateral triangle. This process will help you see how the properties we've discussed - like congruent sides and angles - are built into the very construction of these shapes. Pay close attention to each step, as the techniques we use here will be useful for constructing other geometric figures in the future."
