what- Triangle rigidity means that a triangle cannot be deformed without changing its?
side lengths
What else can I help you with?
If a triangle is obtuse where is the orthocenter of the triangle found?
If a triangle is obtuse, the orthocenter of the triangle actually lies outside of the triangle. If the triangle is acute, the orthocenter of the triangle lies on the inside of the triangle
Is a triangle an equilateral triangle or a obtuse triangle or scalene triangle or a right triangle?
A triangle can be constructed into any of the given formats.
How do you determine that the triangle is a right triangle?
If a triangle has a right angle, it is a right triangle.
In which type of triangle does the orthocenter of the triangle fall outside the triangle?
An obtuse angled triangle.
How do you find which triangle if you know the lengths of the sides of a triangle whether it is isosceles or equilateral or scalene?
You look at the lengths of the sided of the triangle. If the two lengths are same, the triangle is an isosceles triangle. If all the lengths are same, the triangle is an equilateral triangle. If none of the lengths are same, the triangle is a scalene triangle.
What is meant by triangle rigidity?
I'm pretty sure it refers to the fact that a triangle, when in two dimensions, can't collapse. That is, there's no way to change the actual shape of a triangle (other than rotating or moving it) without changing the lengths of the sides.http://i.imgur.com/pfd14.png (see related links below for a clickable link)Look at the image at the above link. Notice how when the square collapses into a parallelogram, the sides still stay the same lengths, but the angles change. That's not possible with a triangle-if the angles change, so do the lengths of the sides. Therefore, a triangle is rigid.(To help visualize this better, picture yourself holding a square frame with hinges at the corners, so it can be bent. It would be easy to bend it into a parallelogram. However, picture the same, only with a triangle. It can't be done.
Is the star the strongest shape?
No. On the lines to rigidity basis, a triangle is.
Why is triangle the most strongest polygonal shape?
The rigidity of the triangle derives from the fact that you cannot change any angle in a triangle without also changing the length of at least one side; in any other type of polygon, it is possible to alter the angles of the polygon without changing the lengths of the sides. So if you have a physical object in the form of a triangle, the sides are not going to change their length unless you break them. Other shapes can fold up, but triangles won't.
Can a obtuse triangle be a triangle?
any triangle is a triangle
What is a triangle rigidity?
Triangles are the most "rigid" shape in geometry. A possible definition might be: Something that does not move Something that is "fixed" at its joints. Triangulation of material adds strength by reducing lateral movement. The triangle holds up very well to forces from many directions. The shape of the triangle can either consolidate force to one point or split a force over the base of the triangle.
If a triangle is obtuse where is the orthocenter of the triangle found?
If a triangle is obtuse, the orthocenter of the triangle actually lies outside of the triangle. If the triangle is acute, the orthocenter of the triangle lies on the inside of the triangle
Can a scalene triangle be a triangle?
Yes, a scalene triangle can be a triangle.
Is a triangle an equilateral triangle or a obtuse triangle or scalene triangle or a right triangle?
A triangle can be constructed into any of the given formats.

What is the six kinds of triangle?

a triangle in a triangle
What triangle is a triangle with three?
