Semi Detailed Lesson Plan (DLP) Format Mathematics 8 Learning Competency: Code
Activity Instruction:
1. Use the given sets of straws cut into the following length, 1 in., 2 in., 3 in., and
4 in., try to make a triangle as indicated. Note that straws must touch only the
ends to make a triangle.
2. Refer to the table below and record the results.
Analysis After the activity, the teacher will ask the following:
10 minutes 1. How did you find the activity?
2. Will you able to make a triangle in all measurements given?
3. How a triangle be constructed?
4. What pattern did you observe with the sets of straws that form and do
not form a triangle?
5. Your findings in this activity describe Triangle Inequality Theorem. How can you
state the theorem by describing the relationship that exists between the lengths of any
two sides and the third side of a triangle?
Abstraction Based on the activity, the cases where the three segments of given lengths such that the
15 minutes sum ofthe lengths of any two sides is greater than the length of the third side, a
triangle can beconstructed from the segments.
Example 1:
Can a triangle be constructed with sides of lengths:
Solution:
a.3cm + 7cm > 8cm
10cm > 7cm
The sum of 6cm and 7cm is not greater than 14cm, contradicting the Triangle
Inequality Theorem. Therefore, a triangle cannot be constructed.
Note: To find a range of possible third sides given two sides, subtract for the lower
bound and add for the upper bound.
Example: What is a possible third side for a triangle with sides 8 and 14.
Solution:
14-8 = 6 Lower Bound
14+8 = 22 Upper Bound
The third side can be between 6 and 22.
The teacher will group the class into two. Each group should complete the tasks given
through game. The student will apply the Triangle Inequality Theorem to
determine the given measurements will be able to make a triangle.The first group who
can finish the task first will raise their triangular flag indicating that they complete the
task. After the game activity, the teacher and the students will generalize the topic
using the following questions as the guide
Application Think-Pair-Share
13 minutes Each student will select his/her partner to do the task. The teacher will present a sketch
of the map of the barangay to the class. Each pair will observe the map and answer the
questions given to them. The teacher will select four pairs randomly to share their
answers to the class
Direction: Given the sketch map, it indicates that there are two pathways where
Teacher will walk from her house to her workplace.
Path 1: Teacher Esmyla’s House to Teacher Marjun’s House then to School
Path 2: Teacher Esmyla’s House to School
Questions:
1. Supposed that the distance from Teacher Esmyla’s house to Teacher Marjun’s
house is 120 meters and the distance from Teacher Marjun’s house to
school is 80 meters.Teacher Esmyla estimates that the distance from her house
directly to school is 180meters? Is her estimation correct? Justify your answer.
2. If you were Teacher Esmyla, which path would you take to go to school?
Assessment Test I.
10 inutes Direction:
By applying the Triangle Inequality Theorem, determine if the given measurements
will be able to make a triangle. Show solutions.
2. Pierce wants to put a flaglets in their backyard for his upcoming birthday. He wants
to decorate his triangular flaglets with a ribbon. The two sides of one of his flaglets are
7meters and 2 meters. How much ribbon is required for the third side?
