An isoceles triangle is a triangle which has exactly two sides of equal length. The third side can be longer or shorter than the other two. The two sides being of equal length means that two of the angles are of equal size (not the one between the two equal-sized sides).
Other types of triangleAn equilateral triangle is one where all three sides are of equal length and so all angles are of equal size. A right-angled triangle is one which has a right angle in it. It can be either an isoceles triangle or a scalene triangle. Scalene triangles are triangles where every side is of a different length and every angle is of a different size.
