What three points can be the verticies of a triangle?

Any three points anywhere in space can be the vertices of a triangle, as long as all three are not colinear.


Can you draw a figure with three points that are noncollinear?

Of course. The vertices of a triangle, and any three vertices of any other polygon, are non-collinear. In the case of a triangle and a quadrilateral, if you had three collinear vertices, then you couldn't have the polygon.


How any vertices does a triangle have?

three


What are the vertices of a shape?

A vertex is where two lines of the shape meet. For example, the three points on a triangle are called vertices.


Is geometry it true that through any three points exists exactly one line?

No, it is not true. Just think of the three vertices of a triangle.


What are vertices of an isosceles triangle?

They are the points where pairs of sides come together, just as they are in any triangle.


If jkl is an isosceles triangle what is kl?

A triangle is usually referred to with a name consisting of the labels of its three vertices. If that's the system implied in this question, then the three vertices of the subject isosceles triangle are the points 'j', 'k', and 'l', and 'kl' is the line between the points 'k' and 'l', i.e. one side of the triangle. We don't know any more than this, like whether or not the side 'kl' is one of the two equal sides.


What is a vertex of a trangle?

A vertex is a corner of a triangle and its plural is vertices


Is the longest distance between two points in a triangle the length of the longest side?

Not necessarily. The longest distance between two points in a triangle is the distance between the vertices that are farthest apart. This can be between any two vertices, not just those connected by the longest side of the triangle.


True or false Any three points can be the verticies of a triangle?

False. Three collinear points determine a line while three non-collinear points determine a plane ( A Triangle)


What is the fewest vertices a polyhedron can have?

Four, as in a tetrahedron. Any three points lie in a plane, so if you only had three vertices they couldn't make a three-dimensional object.


How many vertices does a right triangle have?

3. Vertex (singular of Vertices) is the POINT of the sides (ray, segment, line) come together. For any triangle it always has 3 angles, and thus 3 points, which means 3 vertices. A right triangle is still an triangle, only that one of the 3 angles being 90 degree.
