A vertex B ABC CBA 1 C Bell Work Name the Angle in four different ways 1) Use the vertex and a point from each side. or side The vertex letter is always in the middle. 2) Use the vertex only. 1 B side This only works if there is only one angle at a vertex. 3) Use a number.
2 Ways to Classify • By Side Length • Equilateral • Isosceles • Scalene • By Angle Measurement • Right • Obtuse • Acute
Side LengthEquilateral An Equilateral triangle is a triangle where all three side lengths are congruent. The dashes on the sides of the triangle mean they are the same length (congruent). Remember: Congruent just means equal. is the symbol used for congruent.
Side LengthIsosceles An isosceles triangle is a triangle where at least two sides are congruent. The dashes on the sides of the triangle mean they are the same length (congruent).
Side LengthScalene A scalene triangle is a triangle where all three sides have different measures. The different numbered dashes on the sides of the triangle mean they are all different lengths.
Angle MeasurementRight A right triangle is a triangle that has exactly one right angle. The box in the corner of a triangle represents a right angle. Remember that a right angle is an angle that measures 90⁰.
Angle MeasurementObtuse An obtuse triangle is a triangle that has exactly one obtuse angle. Remember that an obtuse angle is an angle that is greater than 90⁰.
Angle MeasurementAcute An acute triangle is a triangle where all three angles are acute. Remember that an acute angle is an angle that is less than 90⁰.
Equiangular Triangle • A triangle with all angles equal (60°).The same as an Equilateral Triangle
You Try: Name the triangle by it’s angles and sides • Obtuse Isosclese Triangle
You Try: Name the triangle by it’s angles and sides Right Scalene Triangle
We will grade these with ABCD cards at the end of class! Practice:Worksheet
