A real life example of a right-angled triangle would be a ladder leaning against a wall. And a acute triangle is an example of a umbrella. Some types of an umbrella are divided into a few sections using triangles

What is the names of triangle has two sides and two angles?

If you mean two congruent sides and two congruent angles, then you're looking for the isosceles triangle. no you are look for your butt


What is the answer for the height which is 12 and length which is 12 of a triangl?

You haven't told us the question. If you're looking for the area of a triangle, that's 1/2 of (height of the triangle) times (length of the triangle's base).


How many lines of symmetry does a scalene triangle have?

a scalene triangle has 0 lines of symmetry. Scalene triangles are triangles with no sides the same so it can't have a side of symmetry. That is why their are 3 different types of triangles


How was the Bernuda triangle Formed?

The Bermuda Triangle doesn't actually exist as a triangle, any more than selecting three different locations on the surface of the Earth and calling them a triangle.The Bermuda Triangle is an area where (supposedly) strange things happen (but don't really), so I suppose the correct answer is: the Bermuda Triangle was formed by someone looking to make a quick buck by selling fanciful stories to a gullible public.


The distance between A and C is 60 miles and the distance between A and B is 50 miles and the distance between B and C is 50 miles. What is the distance from B to the straight line between A and C?

Draw an isosceles triangle with a base A-C of length 60. The apex of the triangle, point B, is length 50 from both point A and point C. That's your triangle. Drop a "vertical" from B to the base - where it will form a right angle with that line segment and, because the sides are the same length, will bisect the base. That's the line segment you're looking to find the length of. So let's. The base, length 60, is divided into two equal segments by the vertical. That's two length-30 pieces. Notice that your figure, the isosceles triangle with that vertical drawn in, is two "back-to-back" right triangles, each with a base of length 30 and a hypotenuse of length 50. We can "cheat" here and see that the triangles have sides of length 30, 40 and 50. We also know that 3, 4, 5 is a "magic" right triangle because 32 + 42 = 52 (9 + 16 = 25). Our triangle in this problem has sides (conveniently) ten times the length of the 3, 4, 5 triangle. That makes them 30, 40 and 50 in length. The height of the triangle is 40 miles. If you want to work it through, 302 + h2 = 502 900 + h2 = 2500 h2 = 2500 - 900 = 1600 = 40 Our work checks.

What solid figure has one equilateral triangle and an isosceles triangle?

Usually, solid shapes have more than two faces; if that is the case, then the simplest shape we are looking at is a triangular pyramid (both upright and oblique pyramids are considered here). However, if you're looking for a two-faced solid, then you'll be fresh out of luck, even with non-Euclidean geometry, as you cannot have an equilateral triangle and an isosceles triangle in the same shape (unless you make the isosceles triangle an equilateral one).


What is a triangle with three acute triangles?

I think the word your looking for is equilateral triangle


What is a triangle called with all acute angles?

It could be a number of things. Isosceles triangle is most likely what you are looking for.


How many sides does an equilateral polygon have?

That depends on what polygon you are looking at. An equilateral Triangle has three sides. An equilateral Square has four sides. And this goes for any shape that has equal length sides.


Can an acute isosceles triangle have two angles that measure 40 degree's?

Sure. That leaves 100 degrees for the third angle. A fine-looking triangle.


Does an isosceles have 3 acute angles?

not necessarily You could have a really flat-looking isosceles triangle, for example, one with two 10° angles and one 160° angle.


What is the names of triangle has two sides and two angles?

If you mean two congruent sides and two congruent angles, then you're looking for the isosceles triangle. no you are look for your butt


What are 2 isosceles triangles?

An isosceles triangle has two sides the same length and one different. Two isosceles triangles is just two triangles like that. Unless you put them together and then you get a rectangle. I don't know if that was the answer you were looking for but that's all I got.


What triangle has 7cm 7cm 7cm?

Well, honey, that's an equilateral triangle you're looking at. All three sides are the same length, so it's a perfect little equilateral package. No need to overcomplicate things here, it's as simple as it gets.


What type of triangle has only 1 line of symmetry?

Oh honey, that's an isosceles triangle for ya. It's got two sides of equal length and just one line of symmetry to keep things interesting. So, if you're looking for a triangle that's a little asymmetrical but still trying to keep it together, that's your guy.


Which triangle is an obtuse isosceles triangle?

Sneaky ! You're looking at pictures of a group of triangles, aren't you ! And you want me to show you the correct one without seeing the pictures. Look for the wide open skinny one with two equal sides.


What figure has three lines of symmetry?

Oh, dude, that's an easy one. A triangle has three lines of symmetry. Yeah, like, you can fold that bad boy in half three different ways and it's still looking symmetrical. Triangles, man, they're like the cool kids of geometry.
