THE GREEDY TRIANGLE BY MARILYN BURNS!

Here is an interesting story about one day in the life of a triangle.  Listen to the story, remembering how the triangle is shape shifting.  Your job for today is the following:  You are making a book about yourself.  Draw a shape for the cover of your book that tells something about you.  Why did you choose that shape?  Use the language of geometry to describe your shape.
