The 4 types of triangles in Geometry are Isosceles, Equilateral, right angled and Scalene. A Scalene triangle will have no equal sides and no equal angles. An Isosceles triangle will have 2 sides that are of equal length and 2 angles of equal degrees. An Equilateral triangle will have all 3 sides being the same length and all angles will be of the same degrees (60 degrees). A right angled or right triangle has a 90 degree angle.

Equilateral , Isosceles, Right-angles, and Scalene.
Equilateral ; all sides of equal length. All angles equal at 60 degrees.
Isosceles ; two sides of equal length. Two angles are equal. The unequal angle may be obtuse.
Right-angled ; one angle must be right angled. Maybe an Isoscles triangle.
Scalene ; All three sides of different length. All three angles may be different. May have an obtuse angle.
NB For all triangles drawen on a polane surface, the angles always total to 180 degrees.
NNB The sum of the two shorter sides MUST be greater than the longest side.
It is interesting to note that a triangle drawn on a spherical surface, may have the angles summing to 360 degrees. e.g. The Earth's surface.

What is a triangle and what are its types in geometry?
a triangle is a three sided shape. there are 4 types of triangles: scalene, isosceles, right angled triangle and an equilateral triangle.
Can a triangle be coplanar?
In Euclidean plane geometry every triangle MUST BE coplanar.
What does triangle mean in terms of geometry?
It means 3 angles that can be found in a triangle.
Area of triangle in coordinate geometry?
yes
What do you call a triangle with two obtuse sides?
In normal geometry, it's not possible to make a triangle with two obtuse angles. It is possible to make a triangle with two obtuse angles in spherical geometry -- it's a kind of "spherical triangle". It is possible to make a triangle with two obtuse angles in some kinds of non-Euclidean geometry -- it's a kind of "non-Euclidean triangle".

What is the correct name for triangle below?
There are four different types of triangles. They include the isosceles triangle, equilateral triangle, scalene triangle and obtuse triangle. Triangles are used in geometry.
What is right triangle geometry?
A right triangle in geometry is a triangle that has 90 degrees as one of its angles.
Where does the altitude of a triangle intersect geometry?
The altitude of a triangle IS a geometric concept so it intersects geometry in its very existence.
What is the meaning of scalene triangle?
In standard geometry, a triangle with none of its interior angles the same is scalene. Recall those three angles must sum to 180 degrees. Other triangle types include isoceles and equilateral.
What does magnitude mean in geometry?
In geometry, magnitude is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle.
Is an equilateral triangle always a right triangle?
No, never in plane geometry.
Can you write me a sentence using the word triangle?
He drew a triangle on his geometry test.
Can a triangle be coplanar?
In Euclidean plane geometry every triangle MUST BE coplanar.

What is leg in geometry?
The longer sides of a triangle
