What is Fire?
A rapid chemical reaction known as combustion which occurs when fuel and oxygen are brought together with sufficient heat to cause ignition.

The Fire Triangle
Any combustible material such as: solid, liquid, or gas. Most solids and liquids must vapourize before they will burn.
Sufficient oxygen must be present in the atmosphere surrounding the fuel for fire to burn.

Fire Triangle
Sufficient heat energy must be applied to raise the material to its ignition temperature.
Ex: Spark, Arks, Flames, Friction
This reaction can occur when all three of the above elements are present in the proper conditions & proportions.
Ex: Spark, Arks, Flames, Friction etc.
