What are isosceles and scalene triangles?
isosceles - 2 sides of the triangle are the same length scalene - no sides are the same length equilateral- all sides are the same length
What triangle has the same sides and length?
equilateral triangles
What triangle has sides the same length?
Equilateral Triangles
Are equilateral triangles and isosceles triangles the same?
No, they are definitely not. An isosceles triangle is a triangle with 2 sides that have the same length. An equilateral triangle is a triangle with 3, or all sides with the same length.
Kinds of triangles and its meaning?
equilateral triangle- all sides the same length isosceles triangle- 2 sides the same length scalene triangle- no sides the same length
Can a congruent triangle have 2 same sides?
congruent means equivalent. An equilateral triangle has 3 of the same sides, not two. Isosceles triangles can have 2 or 3 of the same length sides. Congruent isosceles triangles are impossible.I agree with most of the above answer but not the last sentence. It is possible to have congruent isosceles triangles. If the legs (sides) of triangle 1 are the same length as the legs of triangle 2, and the bases (third side) of the two triangles are the same length then the two isosceles triangles will be congruent.So the answer to the question is: yes, a congruent triangle can have two same length sides.
Why are congruent triangles similar?
Congruent triangles are the same because all three sides measure the same length.
What are scalene triangles?
an scalene is a triangle with no sides the same lengthas in an equilateral has sides all the same length
Different kinds of triangles in terms of sides?
An isosceles triangle has two sides the same length. An equilateral has all 3 sides the same length. A scalene triangle doesn't have any sides that are the same length.
Can any two triangles be joined to make a rhombus?
No. A rhombus has all four sides of equal length. To split a rhombus into only 2 triangles, it must be split along a diagonal; which means that 2 of the sides of one of the triangles must be the same length as the sides of the rhombus, which being equal mean the triangles must be (at least) isosceles - scalene triangles will not work. Further, as the diagonal will be a common length to each of the triangles (the length of their third sides), it will form the base (ie the side opposite the vertex between the sides of equal length) of the isosceles triangles, and so the triangles must be to congruent isosceles triangles. If the diagonal has the same length as the side of the rhombus, then the two congruent triangles will be congruent equilateral triangles.

How are squares and equilateral triangles alike?
All their sides are the same length
