A unique triangle is a triangle that can only be drawn one way.
If you are given
•3 sides (SSS) eg. 5 cm, 3 cm, 7 cm
•2 sides and the included angle (SAS) eg. 4 cm, 50°, 6 cm
•2 angles and the side between (ASA) eg. 40°, 5 cm, 60°
•1 angle and 2 sides (ASS) eg. 40°, 5 cm, 7 cm
•A right angle, hypotenuse and another side (RHS) eg. 90°, 8 cm, 3 cm
then the triangle you draw is unique.

Every triangle has.
Oh, what a happy little triangle you have there! When a triangle is right-angled and has two sides of equal length, we call it an isosceles right triangle. This special triangle has one angle of 90 degrees and two sides of the same length, creating a sense of balance and harmony in its shape. Just like in painting, each element in this triangle plays its part to create a beautiful and unique composition.
Ah, what a happy little triangle you're describing! That's an equilateral triangle, where all the sides are the same length and all the angles are the same measure. It's like a symphony of balance and harmony on a canvas of geometry. Just remember, every shape is special and unique in its own way.
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
A triangle can be constructed into any of the given formats.
