What does magnitude mean in geometry?
In geometry, magnitude is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle.
To what do the internal angles of a triangle add?
In Euclidean geometry, 180. Other answers are possible, depending on the surface on which the triangle is drawn.
Does a right triangle have three right angles?
Not in traditional, 2 dimensional, euclidean geometry, because a triangles angles always equal 180º .However, there is a branch of Geometry that deals with a coordinate system on a sphere, instead of a plane, and in spherical geometry a triangle with three right angles is very much possible. Consider, for example, the triangle bounded by the Prime Meridian, 90o west longitude, and the equator.
Where does the altitude of a triangle intersect geometry?
The altitude of a triangle IS a geometric concept so it intersects geometry in its very existence.
In geometry what is a hypotenuse?
The hypotenuse is the longest side of a right triangle. It is also the "c" value in the equation a-squared+b-squared=c-squared.The hypotenuse is the largest side of a right angle triangle.
Is an equilateral triangle always a right triangle?
No, never in plane geometry.
What does magnitude mean in geometry?
In geometry, magnitude is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle.
Could triangles have right angles?
Yes, although a triangle (in normal geometry) can only have one right angle, no more. It is possible for a triangle to have all three right angles in spherical geometry (if you were to draw the triangle on a sphere).
What are primary parts of a triangle in geometry?
scalene,acute,obtuse,right
What is a triangle and what are its types in geometry?
a triangle is a three sided shape. there are 4 types of triangles: scalene, isosceles, right angled triangle and an equilateral triangle.
Is it true that an obtuse triangle can have a right angle?
In Euclidean geometry, a triangle must be one of these: acute, obtuse, or right. Maybe there is a non-Euclideangeometry for which some obtuse triangles can contain a right angle, but it doesn't happen in Euclidean geometry.
What is the difference between trigonometry and geometry?
Trigonometry is specificly the study of a right triangle. For example, what is the cosine? Geometry is the study on shapes.
Is an equilateral triangle stronger and more stable than a right angle triangle?
In the geometry of triangles, there is no such thing as stability.
What is a hypotonuse?
In geometry, a hypotenuse is the longest side of a right-angled triangle, the side opposite the right angle.
How many right angles in a scalene triangle?
Any triangle can have a maximum of one right angle. Most right triangles are scalene triangles. The only non-scalene right triangle is a 45° - 45° - 90° isosceles right triangle. It is not possible to have an equilateral right triangle in plane geometry. A scalene triangle does not have to have a right angle, but it can have one.
To what do the internal angles of a triangle add?
In Euclidean geometry, 180. Other answers are possible, depending on the surface on which the triangle is drawn.
In spherical geometry which indicates the possible number of right angles a triangle may have?
All three interior angles of a spherical triangle may be right angles.
