1. Look for any 2 triangular shape structures, objects or things found in your house
or in your place. Take a picture of them.
2. Find the actual lengths of their sides using measuring devices such as ruler,
meter stick, tape measure, etc. and also get their angles by using a protractor or
any measuring applications.
3. Compare the two triangles whether similar or not and justify using the theorems
on similarity of triangles.
