Best Answer

Draw a line from the midpoint of each side of the triangle to opposite corner. All three lines should intersect at the center of the original triangle and six smaller triangles will be formed.

There are likely other solutions, but this is the easiest one.

Do triangles have lines of symmetry?

no they do not they have to be equal so that proves there is NO lines of symmetry * * * * * It depends on the triangle. Equilateral triangles have 3 lines of symmetry, Isosceles triangles have 1 and all other triangles have none.


Does a triangle have 3 lines of symertry?

Most triangles don't have any lines of symmetry. An isosceles triangle has one. An equilateral triangle has three.


Which triangle have two lines of symmetry?

An equilateral triangle has 3 lines of symmetry whereas an isosceles triangle has 1 line of symmetry but normally no triangles have 2 lines of symmetry.


How do you form two triangles by drawing 4 lines?

Make an equilateral triangle(all same sides) with 3 lines and put the 4th on right through the middle and you have 2 right angle triangles.


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


Can you make more than 1 triangle with 3 different lines?

2 triangles can be made which are mirror images of each other.


How many lines of symmetry does a triangle?

That depends on what type of triangle it is because an equilateral triangle has 3 lines of symmetry whereas an isosceles triangle has only 1 line of symmetry and any other triangles have no lines of symmetry.


How do you make 5 triangles with 9 line?

I get 9 triangle with fewer than 9 lines. Draw a square: ABCD (4 lines) Draw the diagonals AC, BD (2 lines) which meet at X in the centre. On a separate part of the page, draw triangle PQR (3 lines). That is 4 + 2 + 3 = 9 lines. The triangles are: ABC, BCD, CDA, DAB, AXB, BXC, CXD, DXA, and PQR 9 triangles with 9 lines. Could have done 13 triangles with 7 lines by drawing a line from A to BC.

Is a regular triangle symmetrical?

No such thing as a regular triangle. You need to be more accurate in your triangular description. Equilateral triangle is symmetric about three lines of symmetry. Isosceles triangle is symmetric one line of symmetry. Right-angled, and Scalene triangles have no lines of symmetry.
