3. Look at Fig 6.2 and classify each of the triangles according to its
(a) Sides
(b) Angles
Answers
Answer:
i) The triangle ABC
Based on Side: In Triangle ABC, Since two sides (BC and AC ) are equal (= 8 cm ) The given triangle is an isosceles triangle.
Based on Angle: In Triangle ABC, Since all the triangles are less than 90 degrees, So the given triangle is Acute angled triangle.
ii) The Triangle PQR
Based on Side: In Triangle PQR, All the sides are different so, The given triangle is a scalene triangle.
Based on Angle: In Triangle PQR, Since angle QRP is a right angle, So the given triangle is Right-angled triangle.
iii)The Triangle LMN
Based on Side: In Triangle LMN, Since two sides (MN and NL ) are equal (=7 cm ), The given triangle is an isosceles triangle.
Based on Angle: In Triangle LMN, Since angle MNL is an Obtuse angle, So the given triangle is Obtuse angled triangle.
iv) The Triangle RST
Based on Side: In Triangle RST, All the sides are equal (=5.2 cm) so, The given triangle is an Equilateral triangle.
Based on Angle: In Triangle RST, Since all the triangles are less than 90 degrees, So the given triangle is Acute angled triangle.
v)The triangle ABC
Based on Side: In Triangle ABC, Since two sides (AB and BC ) are equal (= 3 cm ) The given triangle is an isosceles triangle.
Based on Angle: In Triangle ABC, Since angle ABC is greater than 90 degrees So the given triangle is Obtuse angled triangle.
vi)The Triangle PQR
Based on Side: In Triangle PQR, Since two sides (PQ and QR ) are equal (= 6 cm ) The given triangle is an isosceles triangle.
Based on Angle: In Triangle PQR, Since angle PQR is a right angle, So the given triangle is Right-angled triangle.
