A triangle is a closed figure with three line segments and three angles. Triangles can be classified by the measures of their angles. An acute triangle has only acute angles. An obtuse triangle has one obtuse angle. A right triangle has one right angle.

Acute triangle Obtuse triangle Right triangle

To decide whether a triangle is acute, obtuse, or right, you need to know the measures of its angles.

The sum of the measures of the angles in any triangle is 180°. You can see this if you tear the corners from a triangle and arrange them around a point on a line.

By knowing the sum of the measures of the angles in a triangle, you can find unknown angle measures.

Additional Example 1: Application

D

E

F

To classify the triangle, find the measure of D on the trophy.

So the measure of D is 90°. Because DEF has one right angle, the trophy is a right triangle.

Subtract the sum of the known angle measures from 180°

m D = 180° – (38° + 52°)

m D = 180° – 90°

m D = 90°

Sara designed this triangular trophy. The measure of E is 38°, and the measure of F is 52°. Classify the triangle.

Try This: Example 1

D

E

F

To classify the triangle, find the measure of D on the trophy.

So the measure of D is 136°. Because DEF has one obtuse angle, the trophy is an obtuse triangle.

Subtract the sum of the known angle measures from 180°

m D = 180° – (22° + 22°)

m D = 180° – 44°

m D = 136°

Sara designed this triangular trophy. The measure of E is 22°, and the measure of F is 22°. Classify the triangle.

You can use what you know about vertical, adjacent, complementary, and supplementary angles to find the measures of missing angles.

Angles

When angles have the same measure, they are said to be congruent.

Vertical angles are formed opposite each other when two lines intersect. Vertical angles have the same measure, so they are always congruent.

CLASSIFYING TRIANGLES

BY ANGLE MEASURES

1. Acute – has all acute angles

2. Obtuse – has an obtuse angle

3. Right – has a right angles (90 degrees)

CLASSIFYING TRIANGLES

BY LENGTH OF SIDES

1.Scalene Triangles – All sides are different2. Isosceles Triangle – two sides are the same3. Equilateral Triangle- All sides are congruent

BY ANGLE MEASURES

1. Acute – has all acute angles

2. Obtuse – has an obtuse angle

3. Right – has a right angles (90 degrees)

Triangles can be classified by the lengths of their sides. A scalene triangle has no congruent sides. An isosceles triangle has at least two congruent sides. An equilateral triangle has three congruent sides.

Additional Example 3: Classifying Triangles by Lengths of Sides

Classify the triangle. The sum of the lengths of the sides is 19.5 in.

c = 6.5

6.5 in.

N L c

M

c + (6.5 + 6.5) = 19.5

c + 13 = 19.5

c + 13 – 13 = 19.5 – 13

6.5 in.

Side c is 6.5 inches long. Because LMN has three congruent sides, it is equilateral.

Try This: Example 3

Classify the triangle. The sum of the lengths of the sides is 21.6 in.

d = 7.2

7.2 in.

C A d

B

d + (7.2 + 7.2) = 21.6

d + 14.4 = 21.6 d + 14.4 – 14.4 = 21.6 – 14.4

7.2 in.

Side d is 7.2 inches long. Because ABC has three congruent sides, it is equilateral.
