How can you tell by a triangle's side lengths if it is a right triangle?

If the tree sides of the triangles form a Pythagoras triplet then we can say that the angle opposite to the greatest side is a right angle.

How do you classify a triangle with side lengths 10m 10m 12m?
I would place this triangle in the category of isosceles triangles, because the 10m side and the 10m side have equal lengths.
A triangle with all different sides?
Scalene triangles have no congruent side lengths.
How many triangles exist with the given side lengths 4cm 4cm 7cm. Only one triangle No triangles or infinite triangles?
It is an isosceles triangle with 2 equal sides.
What are the side lengths of a triangle with an area of 6?
If its a right angle triangle then its side lengths could be 3, 4 and 5
Are two triangles that have the same side lengths always be congruent?
Yes because the definition of a congruent triangle is a triangle with EVERY side the same length
Are angles measured by their side lengths?
No. Angles don't have anything called a side length. However, one can use trigonometry to compute the angles of a triangle based on the side lengths of the triangle (triangles do have side lengths).
How many triangles have the side lengths 7in 7in 7in?
There is only one triangle with these side lengths. It is an equilateral triangle, where all three sides have the same length.
How do you classify a triangle with side lengths 10m 10m 12m?
I would place this triangle in the category of isosceles triangles, because the 10m side and the 10m side have equal lengths.
A triangle with all different sides?
Scalene triangles have no congruent side lengths.
How many triangles exist with the given side lengths 4cm 4cm 7cm. Only one triangle No triangles or infinite triangles?
It is an isosceles triangle with 2 equal sides.
What is the relationship between right triangles and the areas of squares?
A right angle triangle with two side lengths that match that of an equivalent square will have exactly half the area of the square.
Example of scalene triangle?
A triangle with side lengths 1, 2, square root(3). A scalene triangle is any triangle whose sides are all of different lengths. It may or may not have a right-angle. Compare with isosceles triangles (2 out of 3 sides are equal in length) and equilateral triangles (all 3 sides are equal in length).
What are the side lengths of a triangle with an area of 6?
If its a right angle triangle then its side lengths could be 3, 4 and 5
Are two triangles that have the same side lengths always be congruent?
Yes because the definition of a congruent triangle is a triangle with EVERY side the same length
Are scalene triangles all obtuse?
No, a scalene triangle is simply a triangle where all angles are not equal and all side lengths are not equal, therefore they can or cannot be obtuse.
What is the difference between an equilateral triangle and scalene triangle?
Equilateral triangles have all the same side lengths and scalene triangles have no similar side lengthsAn equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides whereas a scalene triangle has 3 unequal sides
What kind of triangles are there?
There are many kind of triangles. These are the following: Acute, Right, and Obtuse are actual angles. Scalene, Isosceles, and Equilateral are all actual triangles. But, you can have any triangle with any angle. Like a scalene triangle with a Right angle, or an Isosceles triangle with an Obtuse angle.Acute is a triangle with an angle less than 90 degrees. So it is smaller than a Right triangle. To make and Acute triangle, you need at least two Acute angles.Right triangle have at least on right angle. Right angles are angles that re exactly 90 degrees. If you put a cube right where the angle went, both sides would be perfectly straight.Obtuse triangles are triangles with at least one Obtuse angles. They are always bigger than 90 degrees. They are larger than a Right triangle. If you spread your legs apart, you would have an Obtuse angle.Scalene triangles are triangles with all of the sides different lengths. Each side is either longer or shorter, they are never the same.Isosceles triangles are triangles with two sides the same lengths. The other side is either longer or shorter.Equilateral triangles are triangles with ever side the same exact length. They all are exactly the same. If one is different, it's not an Equilateral triangle.
