Jaqueline:

Nick is studying the triangle sum theorem in his geometry class. The triangle sum theorem states that the sum the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°. Nick concludes that all three angles in an equiangular triangle must be 60°. Is Nick using inductive reasoning or deductive reasoning? Explain how you know.

Imagine:

Inductive because, He is not being specific on how the triangles actually look. He is giving a broad statement that each side must be 60* Because one of them could be a right angle..

Imagine:

Does that help?

Jaqueline:

Yes, I think? lol
