What are the shapes that have 3 sides and 3 vertices?

The shapes that have 3 sides and 3 vertices are called triangles. Triangles are classified based on the lengths of their sides and the measures of their angles. The three most common types of triangles are equilateral triangles (all sides and angles are equal), isosceles triangles (two sides and two angles are equal), and scalene triangles (all sides and angles are different).
