Answer:
Types of Triangles Based on Sides
According to the lengths of their sides, triangles can be classified into three types which are:
Scalene
Isosceles
Equilateral
Let us discuss them one by one.
Scalene Triangle
A scalene triangle has all side lengths of different measures. No side will be equal in length to any of the other sides in such a triangle. In a scalene triangle, all the interior angles are also different. The figure given below illustrates a scalene triangle. You can see how none of the sides is equal in length.
Scalene Triangle
In the above-given figure, you can see that all the sides of the triangle seem to be unequal.
Isosceles Triangle
In an isosceles triangle, the lengths of two of the three sides are equal. So, the angles opposite the equal sides are equal to each other. In other words, an isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles. The figure given below illustrates an isosceles triangle.
Isosceles Triangle
In the above figure, we can see the two sides of the triangle appears to be equal, whereas the base of the triangle here is smaller than the other two sides.
Equilateral Triangle
In an equilateral triangle, all the lengths of the sides are equal. In such a case, each of the interior angles will have a measure of 60 degrees. Since the angles of an equilateral triangle are same, it is also known as an equiangular triangle. The figure given below illustrates an equilateral triangle.
Equilateral Triangle
In the above figure, all the three sides of the triangles are equal as well as all the interior angles equal to 60 degrees.
Types of Triangles Based on Angles
Triangles can be classified into three types with respect to their interior angles which are:
Acute-angled
Obtuse-angled
Right-angled
Let us discuss them.
Acute Triangle
An acute triangle is a triangle whose all the three interior angles are acute. In other words, if all interior angles are less than 90 degrees, then it is an acute-angled triangle. The figure given below illustrates an acute triangle.
Acute Angle Triangle
In the above figure, we can see all the interior angles of the triangle, is less than 90 degrees, hence it is an acute triangle.
Obtuse Triangle
Obtuse triangles are those in which one of the three interior angles has a measure greater than 90 degrees. In other words, if one of the angles in a triangle is an obtuse angle, then the triangle is called an obtuse-angled triangle. The figure given below illustrates an obtuse triangle.
Obtuse Angle Triangle
In the above triangle, we can see that one of the angles is more than 90 degrees. Hence, it is an obtuse triangle.
Right Triangle
A right triangle is a triangle in which one of the angles is 90 degrees. In a right-angled triangle, the side opposite to the right angle (90-degree angle) will be the longest side and is called the hypotenuse. You may come across triangle types with combined names like right isosceles triangle and such, but this only implies that the triangle has two equal sides with one of the interior angles being 90 degrees. The figure given below illustrates a right triangle.
Right angled Triangle
In the above triangle, one among the three angles is 90 degrees, thus it is a right triangle.
