TRIANGLES
AND
TYPES OF TRIANGLES
We get a TRIANGLE by joining
three non collinear points .
Definition
Triangle a polygon with
3 angles and 3 straight
sides.
EXAMPLE
TRIANGLE
- 3 SIDES.
- 3 VERTICES
- 3 ANGLES
Definition
Angle two non-collinear
rays that meet at a
common end point.
-SIDES
-AS, AM,SM
BASIC PARTS
-VERTICES
-S, A, M
-ANGLES

What is a TRIANGLE ?
A closed figure formed by joining
three line segments is called a
TRIANGLE .
A triangle has three sides
A triangle has three angles
Definition
Right Angle an angle
whose measure is exactly
90.Also define as an angle
formed by 2 perpendicular
lines.
Definition
Perpendicular lines are
two lines intersecting at
right angles.
P
For example,
ray EP & ray ET.
E
Definition
Degree a unit of
measurement of an angle
or arc, represented by
the symbol .

TRIANGLES
-ARE NAMED BY
THEIR
VERTICES.
-For example,
-The triangle
S
shown can be
named as SAM.
TYPES OF TRIANGLES
Two Ways
On the basis of angles
On the basis of sides
On the basis of ANGLES
Three types
Acute angled triangle
Right angled triangle
Obtuse angled triangle
Acute angled triangle
A triangle whose all the angles are
acute is called an ACUTE ANGLED
TRIANGLE .
Right angled triangle
A triangle in which one of the angle
is right angle is called RIGHT ANGLED
TRIANGLE.
Obtused angled triangle
A triangle in which one of the angle
is obtuse angle is called OBTUSED
ANGLED TRIANGLE .
Classification On the basis
of sides
Three types
Equilateral triangle
Isosceles triangle
Scalene triangle
Equilateral triangle
A triangle whose all the sides are of
equal length is called equilateral
triangle.
Isosceles triangle
A triangle whose any two sides are of
equal measure is called scalene
triangle.
Scalene triangle
A triangle whose no two sides are of
equal measure is called scalene
triangle.

Points to remember
A closed figure formed by joining three
non collinear points is called
A triangle whose all the sides are of
equal length is called
A triangle whose no two sides are of
equal length is called
A triangle whose one angle is 90 degree
is called
A triangle whose all the angles are less
than 90 degree is called
Property of triangles
The sum of all the
angles equals 180
degrees.
