Identifying and Describing Triangles

This document discusses different types of triangles classified by their sides and angles. It defines equilateral, isosceles, and scalene triangles based on whether their sides are equal or not. It also defines right, obtuse, acute, and equiangular triangles based on whether their angles are right, obtuse, acute, or all equal. Examples are provided and students are given exercises to identify and name different triangles.

Describing
Triangles
Tell whether each
figure is a triangle or
a quadrilateral.
In the previous lesson, you have
learned that a triangle is a polygon
with 3 sides and 3 angles. This time,
you will learn to identify and
describe triangles according to its
sides and angles
Analyze the
problem below.
In the class of Mr. Loyola, he
showed a big triangle. He
divided the triangle into
small triangles of different
sizes. The illustration on the
left shows how Mr. Loyola
divided the triangle.
How many triangles
does he have? Are
the sides of these
triangles equal? Are
the angles of these
triangles equal?
KINDS OF TRIANGLES
ACCORDING TO SIDES
Triangles may be classified
according to their sides. The
kinds of triangles according to
their sides are the equilateral,
isosceles and scalene triangles.
Equilateral triangles
➢An equilateral triangle is
a triangle with three
equal sides.
The symbols “I”, or “II”, etc. are used
to mark parts of figures.
When parts of the same or of
different figures are marked using the
same symbols, that means those
parts have equal measures or are
congruent.
Isosceles triangles
An isosceles triangle is a
triangle with two equal
sides.
Scalene triangles.
A scalene triangle is a
triangle with no equal
sides.
Name the following triangles
according to its sides. Write
your answer on a separate
sheet of paper.
Identify each triangle
according to its sides. Write
equilateral triangle, isosceles
triangle, or scalene triangle.
KINDS OF TRIANGLES ACCORDING TO SIDES
Equilateral - all three sides are
equal
Isosceles - two sides are
equal
Scalene - no sides are equal
Fill in the blanks with
the correct word/s to
complete the statement
Triangles can be classified
according to its sides. An _____
triangle has 3 equal sides. An
_____triangle has 2 equal sides.
A ______ triangle has no equal
sides.
Identify and describe
the triangles
according to their
sides
KINDS OF TRIANGLES
ACCORDING TO
ANGLES
Triangles may also be classified
according to their angles. The
kinds of triangles according to
their angles are the right
triangle, the obtuse triangle and
the equiangular triangle.
Right triangle
A right triangle is a
triangle with a right angle
or an angle which
measures 90˚.
Acute triangles
An acute triangle is a
triangle with three acute
angles or angles each
measuring less than 90˚.
Obtuse triangles
An obtuse triangle is a
triangle with an obtuse angle
or an angle which measures
greater than 90˚.
Equiangular triangles
An equiangular triangle is a
triangle with three equal angles
each measuring 60˚. An
equiangular triangle is actually a
special kind of an acute triangle.
Name the following
triangles according to
its angles.
List all the letters
that are inside right
triangles
Who am I? Identify the kind
of triangle and draw an
example of each. Write your
answer on a separate sheet
of paper.
1. I am a triangle with no sides equal.
2. I am a triangle with 3 equal sides.
3. I am a triangle with an obtuse
angle.
4. I am a triangle with 2 equal sides.
5. I am a triangle with a 90° angle.
Fill in the blanks with
the correct word
from the box below.
1. I am a triangle with three 60◦
angles.
2. I have two equal sides.
3. One of my angles measures 90◦.
4. I have no equal sides.
5. I am a triangle with an angle
greater than 90◦.
6. All my angles are less than 90◦.
7. All my three sides are equal.
8. A triangle is a polygon with
______ sides and
9. three ______.
10. I am a three-sided polygon.
