Triangles

What are Triangles ??


A Triangle is a closed figure which has three sides, three angles and

three vertices. On the basis of sides of a triangle, triangles are of three

types, an Equilateral Triangle , an Isosceles Triangle and a Scalene

Triangle.

All triangles are convex and bicentric. That portion of the plane enclosed by

the triangle is called the triangle interior, while the remainder is the

exterior.
EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE -
Triangles having all sides equal are called Equilateral Triangle.

ISOSCELES TRIANGLE -
Triangles having two sides equal are called Isosceles Triangle.
SCALENE TRIANGLE

Triangles having no sides equal are called Scalene Triangle.


Congruence of Triangles
What is Congruency ?
“Congruent” means equal in all respects or figures, whose shapes
and sizes, both are the same

What are the criteria for Congruence of Triangles ?

 SAS Congruence rule

 ASA Congruence rule

 SSS Congruence rule

 RHS Congruence
SAS Congruence Rule
If two sides and the angle included between them

is

equal to the corresponding two sides and the

angle between them, of another triangle, then the

both triangles are congruent by SAS criteria i.e.,


Side-Angle-Side Criteria of Congruency
ASA Congruence Rule

If two angles and a side of a Triangle are equal to


the

corresponding two angles and a side of the another

Triangle, then the triangles are congruent by the

ASA criteria i.e.,

Angle-Side-Angle Criteria of Congruency.


SSS Congruence Rule

If the three sides of one Triangle are equal to the


three

sides of another Triangle, then the triangles

are congruent by the SSS criteria i.e.,

Side-Side-Side Criteria of Congruency.


RHS Congruence Rule
If the hypotenuse, and a leg of one right angled

triangle is equal to corresponding hypotenuse and the

leg of another right angled triangle then the both

triangles are congruent by the RHS criteria i.e.,

Right Angle-Hypotenuse–Side Criteria of


Congruency
Properties And Theorems
Angle Sum Property-
Angle sum Property of a Triangle is that the sum of
all interior angles of a Triangle is equal to 180˚.

Exterior Angle Property-


Exterior angle Property of a Triangle is that an
exterior angle of the Triangle is equal to sum of two opposite
interior angles of the Triangle.
Pythagoras
PythagorasTheorem
Theorem is a theorem given by Pythagoras.

The theorem is that In a Right Angled Triangle the square of the

hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the rest of the two

sides.

HYPOTENUSE
Proof of Pythagoras Theorem
Theorem
Theorem 1- Angles opposite to equal side of an
isoceles triangle are equal
Converse –The sides opposite to equal angles of
a triangle are equal
Theorem 2- if two sides of a triangle are unequal, the
Angle opposite to the longer side is larger (or
greater)
Theorem 3- in any triangle the side opposite to the
larger angle is longer
Theorem 4–the sum of any two sides of a triangle
is greater than the third side
Formulae for measuring area of triangle

Heron’s Formula
Heron’s original formulae which is a
universal formulae to find area of any
triangle
s (s-a) (s-b) (s-c)

Actually it is a generalization on the ideas of


Indian scientist “Bharamagupt-650 AD”

David P. Robbins in 1895 presented this formula
