There are actually many different kinds of triangles. They are classified by both side lengths and angle measures.

Angle Classifications: 1)Acute- all angels equal less than 90 degrees, unless they are all equal 2)Obtuse- at least one angel equals more than 90 degrees 3)Equiangular- all angels are equal, ie. 60 degrees 4)Right- one of the angels equal 90 degrees

Side Length Classifications: 1)Isosceles- two sides are equal 2)Scalene- all side lengths are different 3)Equilateral- all side lengths are the same

Are Equiangular triangles similar triangles?

Similar triangles are those which have the same set of 3 angles but the length of their sides is perhaps different - in other words they are exactly the same SHAPE but they are different size. Equilateral triangles have all 3 angles equal ( all 60degrees) so the answer is YES.

What are the names of three sided triangles?

All triangles are 3-sided. There are 3 different kinds. One where all 3 sides are equal length and have equal angles is called an Equilateral triangle. A triangle with two sides and angles the same is known as an Isosceles triangle. The last kind of triangle has 3 unequal sides and 3 unequal angles and it is called a Scalene triangle.


Are all the triangles similar?

No because there are different types of triangles but they all have 3 sides and 3 inside angles that add up to 180 degrees


What is the difference between an acute triangle and a scalene triangle?

scalene triangles can be the same as acute triangles beacause scalene triangles are triangles with 3 different angles and sides. An acote triangle needs to have 3 angles less than 90 degrees.
