How many triangles can a 20-gon be made into?

20 isosceles triangles with each base being a side of the 20-gon, and the opposite vertices at the center of the polygon.


Can any two triangles be joined to make a rhombus?

No. A rhombus has all four sides of equal length. To split a rhombus into only 2 triangles, it must be split along a diagonal; which means that 2 of the sides of one of the triangles must be the same length as the sides of the rhombus, which being equal mean the triangles must be (at least) isosceles - scalene triangles will not work. Further, as the diagonal will be a common length to each of the triangles (the length of their third sides), it will form the base (ie the side opposite the vertex between the sides of equal length) of the isosceles triangles, and so the triangles must be to congruent isosceles triangles. If the diagonal has the same length as the side of the rhombus, then the two congruent triangles will be congruent equilateral triangles.


DoTriangles have a 90-degree angle?

No. A triangle may have a 90-degree angle, but not all triangles do. The only requirement for being called a triangle is that it is a closed figure with 3 sides.No. A triangle may have a 90-degree angle, but not all triangles do.
