Which triangle has two acute angles and one obtuse angle?

If you are classifying triangles by their angles, an obtuse triangle has one obtuse angle and two acute angles. A triangle can have at most one obtuse angle. If the two acute angles are congruent, the triangle would also be isosceles.


Exterior angle property of a triangle?

measure of exterior angle of triangle is equal to sum of interior angles. for eg. In triangle ABC, angle C is exterior angle angle A and angle B are interior angles so, C=A+B


What are two angles having the same measurements?

This are called congruent angles. For example, In an isosceles triangle, the two angles which are opposite to the sides that have the same length, have the same measurements. They are called the base angles of the triangle. When each of them is 45 degree, the triangle is also a right triangle, since the other angle is 90 degree.


What if two angles of a triangle are complemenatr what is the measure of the third angle?

The sum of two complementary angles is 90 degrees. The three angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees. Hence, if you subtract the complementary angles from 180, you have the measure of the third angle: 180 - 90 = 90 (this is the third angle) As a rule, if two angles of a triangle are complementary, the third angle is a right angle (90 deg). The three angles together form a right triangle.


How do you classify a triangle by the sizes of there angles?

All triangles have 3 sides and 3 interior angles that add up to 180 degrees and they are classed as follows:- Right angle triangle:a 90 degree angle and 2 acute angles Scalene triangle: 3 acute angles Obtuse triangle: an obtuse angle and 2 acute angles Isosceles triangle: 2 equal base angles and an apex angle Equilateral triangle: 3 equal angles each measuring 60 degrees

How do you find the angle of a right triangle with the length of two legs?

-- Like every triangle, a right triangle has three interior angles.-- Unlike any other triangle, one of the angles in a right triangle is a right angle.The other two are both acute angles.-- One acute angle is the angle whose cosine is length of one leg / length of hypotenuse-- Other acute angle is the angle whose sine is length of the same leg / length of the hypotenuse-- The length of the hypotenuse is the square root of [ (length of one leg)2 + length of other leg)2 ]


An isosceles triangle is a triangle with?

Two sides the same length, and two angles the same angle.


How do you use sine in math?

The sine function is used in trigonometric calculations when attempting to find missing side lengths of a right triangle. The sine of an angle in a triangle is equal to the length of the side opposite of that angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle. Using this fact you can calculate the length of the hypotenuse if you know an angle measure and the length of one leg of the triangle. You can also calculate the length of a leg of the triangle if you know an angle measure and the length of the hypotenuse.


What is right angle triangle and isoceles triangle?

A right angle triangle is a triangle with an angle 90 degrees. An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two or more equal angles/ length of lines. An equilateral triangle can also be an isosceles triangle.


In a right triangle the sine of any angle is?

The longest side of the right angles triangle is called the hypotenuse. Divide the length of the side opposite the chosen angle by the length of the hypotenuse. This is the Sine of the angle.


What triangle has one right angle and two sides the same length?

An isoceles triangle has two angles that are the same length with the third being different. It can be a right angle or another angle. or it's also called a Right Isosceles triangle.


What is the measure of an angle in an equiangular triangle?

The sum of the internal angles in a triangle is equal to 180 degrees. An equiangular triangle, otherwise known as an equilateral triangle, has three angles of the same length, and three angles of the same size. The size of each angle is 180 / 3 = 60 degrees.


What is the tangent of a right triangle?

There is no such thing as the tangent of a triangle. Circles, angles, and conversations have tangents. In a right angled triangle, the tangent of one of the acute angles is the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the side adjacent to it.


How do you get the height of a right angle triangle with one angle 32degree and other angle 52degree?

A right angled triangle cannot have one angle of 32 degrees and another of 52 degrees. The two MUST sum to 90 degrees. Furthermore, information about the three angles is not sufficient to calculate any length for the triangle. You must know the length of at least one line - a side, an altitude or a median.


What are the different kinds of angles and triangle according to size and its angles?

Angles: acute angle, obtuse angle, right angle Triangles: isosoles triangle, scalene triangle, equadrital triangle, right triangle, acute triangle, obtuse triangle


Does a right angled triangle is one angle always a right angle?

Yes. A right triangle is a triangle where one angle is a right angle. If two out of three angles are right angles, then it's an isosceles triangle. If all three angles are right angles, then it is an equilateral triangle.


How do you calculate the missing degree of a triangle?

The sum of all the angles in a triangle equals 180o. To find the missing angle, subtract the sum of the two known angles from 180o.ExampleTwo angles of a triangle are 35o and 62o. What is the third angle?Solution180o - (35o + 62o) =180o - 97o = 83o
