Where is construction of triangles used?

In building slanted roofs.


Why do architects and engineers use so many triangles in construction?

Triangles are rigid, quadrilaterals are not - a square can be "squashed" into rhombus.


Why are triangles used in construction?

Triangles are used in construction because they are the most stable structure type. The angles take in weight and spread it throughout the sides of the triangle, so the weight is balanced out.


Why is it important for triangles to have different proportions?

Your question as stated has only one possible answer, or maybe two:In what context? Art? Construction? In geometry it doesn't matter.It isn't.

Does the Pythagorean relationship apply to all triangles?

NO!!!! Only to right angles (90 o) triangles. For other types of triangle, you have to use a construction line, which has a right angle in it.


How is trigonometry applied?

Trigonometry is applied in construction and building, as trigonometry measures right angled triangles.


Why are triangles used in the construction of bridges?

Triangles are used in structures because a triangle is a very stable shape that cannot be stretched or squashed easily - unlike rectangles which can easily become parallelograms.


How are triangles used in science?

Triangles are an important part of mathematics (there is a whole branch of mathematics devoted to the study of triangles, called trigonometry) and mathematics is the language of science.

How many triangles can be made from five points?

The geometric shape formed by connecting the perimeter of five points is a pentagon. Its basic construction is that of three triangles with one triangle in the middle sharing two of its sides with a base line of the other two triangles. The maximum number of triangles that can be created, if you count only those triangles that are formed by line segments between each of the five points, are ten (10).
