Properties of a triangle The properties of equilateral triangles: All sides are the same length (congruent) and all interior angles are the same size (congruent). To find the measure of the interior angles, we know that the sum of all the angles is 180 degrees (from above)... And there are three angles. Triangle sum theorem- m<A+M<c=1 80. The sum of the three angles in any triangle sum to 180 degrees. Third Angle theorem – The third angles theorem states tat if two angles of triangle e are congruent to two angles of another triangle , then the third angle of the triangles ar congruent also Exterior angle theorem M<4=m<2+m<3
Right triangle A right triangle (American English) or right-angled triangle (British English) is a triangle in which one angle is a right angle (that is, a 90-degree angle). The relation between the sides and angles of a right triangle is the basis for trigonometry.
Acute Triangle An acute triangle is a triangle with all three angles acute (less than 90°). An obtuse triangle is one with one obtuse angle (greater than 90°) and two acute angles. Since a triangle's angles must sum to 180°, no triangle can have more than one obtuse angle.
Obtuse Triangle An acute triangle is a triangle with all three angles acute (less than 90°). An obtuse triangle is one with one obtuse angle (greater than 90°) and two acute angles. Since a triangle's angles must sum to 180°, no triangle can have more than one obtuse angle.
Equilateral Triangles an equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are equal. In the familiar Euclidean geometry, equilateral triangles are also equiangular; that is, all three internal angles are also congruent to each other and are each 60°.
Isosceles Triangle In geometry, an isosceles triangle is a triangle that has two sides of equal length. Sometimes it is specified as having two and only two sides of equal length, and sometimes as having at least two sides of equal length, the latter version thus including the equilateral triangle as a special case.
Scalene Triangle A scalene triangle is a triangle that has three unequal sides, such as those illustrated above. SEE ALSO: Acute Triangle, Equilateral Triangle, Isosceles Triangle, Obtuse Triangle, Triangle.
