What are the types of triangles based on sides?

Back

1. Equilateral: All sides are equal. 2. Isosceles: Two sides are equal. 3. Scalene: All sides are different.

What are the types of triangles based on angles?

Back

1. Acute: All angles are less than 90 degrees. 2. Right: One angle is exactly 90 degrees. 3. Obtuse: One angle is greater than 90 degrees.

Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a triangle?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.

Front

What is an equilateral triangle?

Back

An equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are equal in length and all three angles are equal, each measuring 60 degrees.

Front

What is an isosceles triangle?

Back

An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has at least two sides of equal length and the angles opposite those sides are equal.

Front

What is a scalene triangle?

Back

A scalene triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are of different lengths and all three angles are of different measures.
