Geomerty 2

The document discusses the different types of triangles: right triangles have one 90 degree angle; acute triangles have all angles less than 90 degrees; obtuse triangles have one angle greater than 90 degrees. Examples are given such as a sandwich cut in half demonstrating a right triangle or a caution sign showing an acute triangle. The document also defines equilateral triangles with three equal sides, isosceles triangles with two equal angles, and scalene triangles with all unequal sides and angles. Examples such as a pool rack or bicycle frame illustrate these triangle types.

About Triangles

All triangles add up to 180 degrees no


matter what shape they are or the size of
their measures
There are several different theorems that
you use to find a triangle (corresponding,
vertical angles, linear pairs, alternate
angles)

Right Triangle

Right triangles have a right angle that


measures up to 90 degrees
A sandwich cut In half is an example of a
right triangle

Acute triangle

An acute triangle has measures that are


always less than 90 degrees
A caution sign on the side of the road is a
perfect example of an acute triangle

Obtuse triangle

An obtuse triangle has an angle that is


more than 90 degrees
A slanted roof on a house is a good
example of an obtuse triangle

Equilateral triangle

An equilateral triangle has sides that are


all congruent
The rack that you use for pool is a perfect
example of an Equilateral triangle

Isoclines triangle

An Isoclines triangle has two angles that


are the same measure
A hanger is a good example of a isoclines
triangle

Scalene triangle

Scalene triangles has sides that are all


unequal
The frame of a bicycle is a good example
of a scalene triangle
