Examples and Exercises with Solutions for Scalene Triangle

Exercise #1

What kid of triangle is given in the drawing?

90°90°90°AAABBBCCC

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

The measure of angle C is 90°, therefore it is a right angle.

If one of the angles of the triangle is right, it is a right triangle.

Answer

Right triangle

Exercise #2

What kind of triangle is given in the drawing?

404040707070707070AAABBBCCC

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

As all the angles of a triangle are less than 90° and the sum of the angles of a triangle equals 180°:

70+70+40=180 70+70+40=180

The triangle is isosceles.

Answer

Isosceles triangle

Exercise #3

What kid of triangle is the following

393939107107107343434AAABBBCCC

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

Given that in an obtuse triangle it is enough for one of the angles to be greater than 90°, and in the given triangle we have an angle C greater than 90°,

C=107 C=107

Furthermore, the sum of the angles of the given triangle is 180 degrees so it is indeed a triangle:

107+34+39=180 107+34+39=180

The triangle is obtuse.

Answer

Obtuse Triangle

Exercise #4

What kind of triangle is given in the drawing?

999555999AAABBBCCC

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

Given that sides AB and AC are both equal to 9, which means that the legs of the triangle are equal and the base BC is equal to 5,

Therefore, the triangle is isosceles.

Answer

Isosceles triangle

Exercise #5

Which kind of triangle is given in the drawing?

666666666AAABBBCCC

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

As we know that sides AB, BC, and CA are all equal to 6,

All are equal to each other and, therefore, the triangle is equilateral.

Answer

Equilateral triangle
