Triangles Flashcards
What is a triangle?
A triangle is a plane figure with 3 sides, 3 vertices and 3 angles. All three angles must add up to 180º
what type of triangle is shown?
A right triangle because one angle forms 90º
what type of triangle is shown?
Isosceles triangle because two sides measure the same angle.
What type of triangle is shown?
equilateral triangle because all sides measures the same and total to 60º
What type of triangle is shown?
Scalene triangle because all sides are unequal.
what type of triangle is shown?
An acute angle because all angles are less than 90º
what type of triangle is shown?
An obtuse triangle because one angle is greater than 90º
find the value of x and identify the type of triangle
33º and it’s an obtuse triangle
isolate the variable X
124 + 23 + x =180
find the value of x and idenfify the type of triangle
x= 120 and it’s an obtuse triangle.
40+20+3x=180
solve for c and identify the type of triangle
c= 65º and it’s a right triangle
25+90+c=180
