In a triangle, the sum of any two sides is greater than the third side. This is known as Triangle Inequality property.
Sum of three angles of a triangle is 180°.
Parallel and Perperndicular lines can easily be drawn using set squares.
The distance between a set of parallel lines always remains the same.
