They are acute if every single angle is under 90 degrees, but their sum is equal to 180.

Can a triangle be both acute and equilateral?

It would help to know the definitions of acute and equilateral.An acute triangle is one whose angles are all less than 90o.An equilateral triangle is one whose sides are all the same, but that also means the angles will all be the same (60o)So, every equilateral triangle will be acute.Yes, a triangle can be both acute and equilateral.


What does an isosceles acute triangle look like?

if you know what a acute triangle looks like and you know what a isosceles triangle looks like just combined them together and then find the angles and degrees you'll find what a acute isosceles triangle looks like if you got the degrees right and angles


What shape has 3 horizontal sides?

Triangle


In a right triangle one acute angle is of measure 40degree find the other acute angle please draw and show me?

Since a right triangle has 180 degree angles in it, you know 2 angles already. One is the 90 degree angle, since the triangle is a right one. The other is 40 degrees, as in your statement. 90 plus 40 is 130. 50 degrees is the missing angle since 50 + 40+ 90 equal 180 degrees. Hopefully that helped you.


How do you find the legs of a right triangle if you know the hypotenuse?

If that's all you know, then you can't. Whatever the length of the hypotenuse is, there arean infinite number of right triangles that all have the same length hypotenuse.In order to define one unique right triangle, you need to know one of the following in addition tothe length of the hypotenuse:-- the length of one leg-- the size of either acute angle
