Since the sum of the angles of the triangle is equal to 180°, two right angles would already hit that sum and can no longer create a triangle. This is a symbol that indicates 90° or a right angle.Ī triangle can only have one right angle. The right angle in a diagram may be noted by what looks like a box in the corner. When a triangle has an angle measure of 90° it is known as a right triangle. A right angle is an angle that has a measure of 90°. You may start to notice a pattern when there are congruent angles, there are congruent sides. It does not matter if the angles are the same or different for classifying the triangle as an acute triangle. 👉🏻 A triangle must have at least two acute angles 👉🏻 The hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle of a triangle. When a triangle only has angles that are less than 90°, it is known as an acute triangle. An acute angle is an angle that is between 0° and 90°. There are three different types of angles that we are going to use to classify triangles, acute, right, and obtuse. Now that we have classified triangles by their sides, now we can take a look at their angles. None of the sides have the same number of ticks. Once more take notice of the tick marks on each of the sides. A scalene triangle is a triangle where no sides have the same length. The last triangle that is classified by the side lengths is called a scalene triangle. These triangles also have two angles that have the same measure. The third side, which has a different length, is known as the base. These two sides are referred to as “legs”. These triangles have two sides that have the same length. The next triangle type of triangle is called an isosceles triangle. This indicates that each of the side lengths is congruent, or have the same length. The second triangle shows only tick marks on the sides. One you can see by the labels of the side lengths. These two triangles are both equilateral. Although it describes the angle measures, an equilateral triangle can also be called an equiangular triangle since all of the angles are the same measures, but that is a lesson for a different time. “Equi” means equal, and “lateral” means sides. If all of the sides have the same length, this is known as an Equilateral Triangle. Types of Triangles Based on Sides Equilateral Triangle

The number of tick marks are helpful to indicate congruent lengths. Take note of the marks and notations on them. With each of the descriptions are diagrams. Classifying by sides is really naming the triangles by their side lengths. We will start with classifying triangles by their sides. Triangles can be classified, or named by either their sides or their angles. 👉🏻 An equilateral triangle has three angles that are each 60° Types of Triangles 👉🏻 The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180° If you and your friend were to measure the angles and add them together, they would both equal 180°! Both of the triangles would have three sides and three angles. There would be some features that are the same. If you and a friend were to each draw a triangle, they may not be the same! These sides may be different lengths and the angles may be different measures. Triangles are a two dimensional shape with three sides and three angles.
