It's important to remember that a triangle's angles will always total 180 degrees.

180 - 42 - 48 = 90.

The last angle is 90 degrees, so this is a right triangle.

What is triangles measure 45 45 and 90?

These are the degrees of each angle. It is a right triangle, and it also is an isosceles triangle.


How do you classify a triangle by its angles?

If all three angles of a triangle measure less that 90 degrees (if all three angles are acute), the triangle is an acute triangle. A triangle that has a right angle (an angle the measures exactly 90 degrees) is a right triangle. (The other 2 angles will be acute angles.) A triangle that has an angle that is greater than 90 degrees (an obtuse angle), is an obtuse triangle. (The other 2 angles will be acute angles.)


What is the total angle measure in degrees of any triangle?

180 degrees.


What is the missing measure for 25 degrees and 120 degrees for triangle?

35 degrees because the 3 angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees


What is the meaning of Side angle side Congruence?

It means that if two triangles have two sides with the lengths of the corresponding sides that are equal (congruent) and the angles between between the two sides congruent, then the triangles are congruent (i.e., the three corresponding lengths of sides and three corresponding angles are all congruent). For example, if you know that triangle one has sides of length 1 and 2 and the angle between the two sides is 60 degrees and that triangle two has sides of length 1 and 2 and the angle between the two sides is 60 degrees, this theorem says that the triangles are congruent, so the length of third side of both triangles is the same and the measure of the other two angles in triangle one is the ame as the measure of the other two angles in triangle two.
