A triangle with 3 equal sides is an equilateral triangle.

A triangle with 2 equal sides is an isosceles triangle.

There is no such thing as a triangle with ONE equal side. Equal to what?

If you wish to stretch it and say each side is (equal to itself only ) not equal to any others it is a scalene triangle.

no there is no way to correctly divide a triangle into three equal parts. One side will always turn out an inch or so larger.


What median of an isosceles triangle is the same segment in the triangle as the leg bisector hypotenuse altitude?

It is the median which divides the side which is not one of the equal sides.


The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 63m what is the measure of one side of the triangle?

An equilateral triangle has three sides of the same length. Therefore, the length of each side of an equilateral triangle with a perimeter of 63 metres is equal to 63/3 = 21 metres.


What is the difference between an isosceles triangle and a right triangle?

In an isosceles triangle, two sides are of equal length. An isosceles triangle also has two congruent angles. An equilateral triangle is an isosceles triangle, but not all isosceles triangles are equilateral triangles. __________ A right triangle (or right-angled triangle, formerly called a rectangled triangle) has one 90° internal angle (a right angle). The side opposite to the right angle is the hypotenuse; it is the longest side in the right triangle. An isoceles triangle has TWO sides of equal length but and equilateral triangle has THREE sides of equal length.


What is an asa triangle?

ASA is not a triangle, it is a method of proving that two triangles are congruent. ASA refers to showing that if two angles and a side (Angle-Side-Angle) of one triangle are the same measures as the corresponding angles and side of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. Since the three angles sum to 180 degrees, if two of them in one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles in the second triangle, then the third set of angles must also be equal. Consequently, ASA is equivalent to AAS and SAA. That is NOT The case with two sides and an angle, where it must be the included angle that is equal.

How do you find the perimeter of a equilateral triangle when a side equals 12yrds?

An equilateral triangle has three sides of exactly the same length. Therefore, if one side of the triangle is equal to 12 yards, then the perimeter of the triangle is equal to 12 x 3 = 36 yards.
