Make a triangle out of straws or something. See if you can push it sideways like a square. I you try to, you either bend it, break it or push the entire thing sideways...
You can't bend it like a square. this is why triangles is the strongest shape. And also tall skyscrapers are made from triangles if looked from a birds eye-view...

What are two triangles that have the same shape but are different sizes called?
Those would be SIMILAR triangles.
What are equivalent triangles?
They are triangles with 3 equal sides and 3 equal interior angles or triangles that are congruent in shape
Is a triangle a symmetric shape yes or no?
Some triangles are symmetric, while others are not. All equilateral and isosceles triangles are symmetric.all triangles are symmetric.
How many triangles in a 50 sided shape?
By looking at other polygons with less sides, we can see how many triangles they can fit. In a 4-sided polygon (square), you can fit 2 triangles. In a 5-sided polygon (pentagon), you can fit 3 triangles. In a 6-sided polygon (hexagon), you can fit 4 triangles. In an 8-sided polygon (octagon), you can fit 6 triangles. The pattern here is the number of triangles is equal to the number of sides minus 2. T = N - 2 So... 50 - 2 = 48. 48 triangles can fit into a 50-sided polygon.
what 3 D shape has 4 rectangles and 2 triangles?
There is no 3D shape with 6 faces: 4 rectangles and 2 triangles. See the link for all forms of hexahedra.
What shape makes a strong tower?
rather than doing squares or triangles make a pentagon or hexagon they are stronger.
What is the stronger shape a circle or a triangle?
A circles structural shape is in fact stronger than a triangles structural geometric shape.
What is this shape it has two triangles?
it makes a dimond
What makes the Eiffel Tower rigid?
In geometry, the triangle form is the most rigid. The length of the sides define the shape of the triangle and anything made of triangles will maintain that rigidity. Looking at the Eiffel Tower you will notice that the whole structure is composed of metal beams meeting to form triangles. The metal beams themselves are made of smaller triangle structures.
What other 2d shape has congruent triangles in it?
A square and rectangle both have congruent triangles in them.
What shape can you create with two squares and two triangles?
A rectangle.. If you combine the triangles to make another square and then place all the squares in a row it makes a rectangle. you can also make a trapezium, if you place the 2 squares next to each other and then the triangles beside them...
How many triangles does it take to make a rectangle?
A minimum of 2 triangles are needed, but you can also make a rectangle with 3 or more triangles.
What shape does it make when you put two triangles together?
Sliding them together makes a Big Triangle, flipping them makes a Diamond.
Why are igloo dome shaped?
because the shape makes it more stronger
Why are tortilla chips triangles?
That is just the shape that they are made in. It makes them unique and slightly different than many other snack chips, and it is easy to hold onto and eat.
Im thinking of a 3d shape it has a square base it has 4 other faces which are triangles what is the name of the 3d shape?
The simplest such shape is PYRAMID.
What shape can you make with 2 small triangles?
the shape that can make two smaller triangles is parallelogram.
