Equilateral Triangle Equilateral Triangle: The 3 sides are of equal length
Equilateral Triangle Equilateral Triangle The 3 corner angles are 60 degrees.
Isosceles Triangle Two of the sides are of equal length. The third side is a different length
Isosceles Triangle The third angle is different. Two of the corner angles are equal.
Some more Isosceles Triangles... The third angle is different in size. These two sides are equal. The angles where the equal sides meet the third side are equal.
Some more Isosceles Triangles... Equal Sides Equal Angles
Some more Isosceles Triangles... Equal Sides Which two angles are equal?
Some more Isosceles Triangles... Which two angles are equal?
Scalene Triangle All angles are different sizes. All sides are different lengths.
Right-angled Triangle In a right-angled triangle, one of the corner angles is a 90 degree angle. 90 degree angle.
More Right-angled Triangles 90 degree angle. In a right-angled triangle, one of The corner angles is a 90 degree angle.
Angles in a Triangle The angles of a triangle, added together, form a straight angle, 180⁰.
Using this rule A C B
Sample problem: work out the value of the angle x in the triangle shown. What type of triangle is this?
Sample problem 2: work out the values of the angles x and y in the triangle shown. What type of triangle is this?
Opposite Angles When two lines intersect, 4 angles are formed. Angles which are opposite each other, are equal. The two angles in redare opposite angles, they are equal in size. The two angles in yelloware opposite angles, they are equal in size.
Angles and parallel lines. When a line crosses 2 parallel lines many of the angles formed are equal. The angles in redare all equal in size. The angles in yelloware all equal in size.
Angles and parallel lines. All the acute angles are equal and all the obtuse angles are equal. Some of these angles have special names.
You can spot corresponding angles by looking for the following shapes
You can spot corresponding angles by looking for the following shapes
You can spot alternate angles by looking for the following shapes
Interior Angles Interior Angles add to 180⁰
Angles and parallel lines. Interior Angles Interior Angles add to 180⁰
You can spot interior angles by looking for the following shapes
Work out the value of the angles x and y in the diagram below. Using the opposite angle rule, y and 60 are equal Using the alternate angle rule, y and x are equal
Work out the value of the angles x and y in the diagram below. Using the corresponding angle rule, y and 125 are equal Using the straight angle rule,
Work out the value of the angles x and y in the diagram below. Using the interior angle rule, the angles shown add to 180⁰. So the angle in red is 55⁰. Using the opposite angle rule, Using the corresponding angle rule,
Work out the value of the angle p in the diagram below. The angles shown are corresponding angles. Using the opposite angle rule,
Sample problem: the line L is parallel to side rs of the triangle, work out the angles x and y. Step1: As rs and L are parallel, we can use the alternate angle rule: Step2: Triangle rule:
