J. How to Draw a Triangle with Known Lengths of Sides
Given: lengths 1, 2, and 3.
Step 1: Draw the longest length line, in this example length 3,
with ends A and B. Swing an arc (R1) from point A
whose radius is either length 1 or length 2; in this
example length 1.
Step 2; using the radius length not used in step 1, swing an
arc (R2) from point B to intercept the arc swung from
point A at point
Step 3: Connect A to C and B to C to complete the triangle
