Andre and Noah each drew a triangle with side lengths of 5 cm and 3 cm and an angle that measures 60 degrees, and then they showed each other their drawings.

Did Andre and Noah draw different triangles? Explain your reasoning.

Explain what Andre and Noah would have to do to draw another triangle that is different from what either of them has already drawn.

    If Andre and Noah included the 60° degree angle between different set of sides, they drew different triangles.

    To draw another triangle different from what either of them has already drawn, they have to include the 60°angle between different sets of triangle sides.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given side length1=5 cm

    Side length2=3cm

    Angle=60°

    The problem doesn't mention that the 60° angle should be between the two give sides.

    Hence Andre and Noah can represent 60° angle between 5 cm and 3cm sides or between 5cm and third side or between 3 cm and third side.

    Thus the triangles drawn will be different if the angle is included between different sets of sides.

    To draw a triangle that is different from hat either of them has drawn earlier, they have to change the 60° angle into a different set of sides.
