The Included Angle
Part of the Congruence & Proof section of Coddy's Geometry journey. Lesson 16 of 63.
Two sides of a triangle meet at a corner. The angle at that corner, the one the two sides make with each other, is called the included angle of those sides: it is included between them.
Here sides AB and BC meet at B, so their included angle is ∠ABC. The other two angles, at A and at C, each touch only one of the two sides. A quick test: the included angle's vertex is the letter the two side names share. AB and BC share B.
Challenge
Tap the included angle of sides ST and SU in triangle STU, then press Check.
