Because the formula for finding the total interior angles of any polygon is;

(Number of sides - 2)*180 = sum of interior angles

A triangle has 3 sides so: (3 - 2)*180 = 180 degrees

A quadrilateral has 4 sides so: (4 - 2)*180 = 360 degrees

If a triangle has 1 right angle can it have three equal sides how?

No, because the angles of a triangle have to total 180 degrees and if there are three angles in a triangle, 90 * 3 cannot equal 180. To have three equal sides, the angles must equal 60 degrees 60 * 3 = 180.
