2. Different Types of Triangles
There are several different types of triangles.
You can classify a triangle by its sides and its angles.
There are THREE different classifications for triangles based on their sides.
There are FOUR different classifications for triangles based on their angles.

3. Classifying Triangles by Their Sides
EQUILATERAL – 3 congruent sides
ISOSCELES – at least two sides
congruent
SCALENE – no sides congruent
EQUILATERAL
ISOSCELES
SCALENE

4. Classifying Triangles by Their Angles
EQUIANGULAR – all angles are congruent
ACUTE – all angles are acute
RIGHT – one right angle
OBTUSE – one obtuse angle
EQUIANGULAR
ACUTE
RIGHT
OBTUSE

5. Can You Classify the Different Triangles in the Picture Below?
Classify the following triangles: AED, ABC, ACD, ACE

6. The Classifications… Triangle AED = Equilateral, Equiangular
Triangle ABC = Equilateral, Equiangular
Triangle ACD = Isoceles, Obtuse
Triangle ACE = Scalene, Right
So how did you do?
