Identifying Triangles By Sides Iscoceles Equilateral Scalene Right Iscoceles Equilateral Scalene Right
Determining Isosceles Isosceles Triangles will have 2 equal sides, and one unequal. For example, Two sides are 8meters long, And the base is 14meters
Determining Equilateral An equilateral triangle is a triangle with all equal sides, hence the name Equilateral.
Determining Scalene Scalene Triangle’s have no equal sides. They’re all congruent, and each angle is equal to 60º!
Determining Right Triangles Its easy, there are 3 sides to a right triangle. The legs, which are straight, and the hypotenuse is a diagonal line. The angle of the 2 legs is ALWAYS equal to 90 degrees.
Identifying Triangles by Angles Obtuse Acute Right Obtuse Acute Right
Identifying Obtuse Angles An Obtuse angle is an angle of a triangle over 90 degrees.
Identifying Acute Angles Acute angles are tiny angles, smaller/less than 90 degrees,
Identifying Right Angles All right triangles will have right angle the right angle as said before always has a 90 degree angle.
Special Rules/Tips & Tricks There are a few special rules you ought to remember when dealing with isosceles and/or equilateral triangles. They are outlined below. 1. If a triangle is equilateral, it is equiangular. 2. If two angles of a triangle are congruent, they are the base angles of an isosceles triangle. 3. If a triangle is equiangular, it is equilateral.

Pythagorean Theory If you have to find the Hypotenuse: Square The Sides, And then add them, And then find the square root of your result. If youre looking for a leg, Square the Hypotenuse, And the and the leg, then just subtract the larger one to the smaller one then square your result and that’s the leg.
REVIEW! Isosceles: 2 Equal Sides Scalene: No Equal Sides Right: 90 Degree Angle Equilateral: All Equal Sides Obtuse: >90º Acute: <90º Right: 90º Isosceles: 2 Equal Sides Scalene: No Equal Sides Right: 90 Degree Angle Equilateral: All Equal Sides Obtuse: >90º Acute: <90º Right: 90º
