The sum of the three angles of a triangle is always 180 o. One of the angles has a measure of 90 o as it is a right triangle. 147∘ + x =180∘ x = 180∘ −147∘ x = 33∘. Simplify. Find the value of x. The third angle of the right triangle measures 33 o. There is an established convention for naming triangles.

2 days ago · Not all congruent angles add up to 180 degrees, though, so this rule only works when two angles are congruent along a straight line. 5. Congruent Complements Theorem. Constructing congruent angles is easiest when an angle bisector creates two pairs of equal angle measures on right-angle shapes with the same relative position.

A quadrilateral has: 1. four sides (edges) 2. four vertices (corners) 3. interior angles that add to 360 degrees: Try drawing a quadrilateral, and measure the angles. They should add to 360°
There are special types of quadrilateral: Some types are also included in the definition of other types! For example a square, rhombus and rectangle are also parallelograms. See belowfor more details. Let us look at each type in turn:
the little squares in each corner mean "right angle" A rectangle is a four-sided shape where every angle is a right angle(90°). Also opposite sides are paralleland of equal length.
the little squares in each corner mean "right angle" A squarehas equal sides (marked "s") and every angle is a right angle (90°) Also opposite sides are parallel. A square also fits the definition of a rectangle (all angles are 90°), and a rhombus(all sides are equal length).
A rhombusis a four-sided shape where all sides have equal length (marked "s"). Also opposite sides are parallel andopposite angles are equal. Another interesting thing is that the diagonals (dashed lines) meet in the middle at a right angle. In other words they "bisect" (cut in half) each other at right angles. A rhombus is sometimes called a rhomb...
A parallelogramhas opposite sides parallel and equal in length. Also opposite angles are equal (angles "A" are the same, and angles "B" are the same).
A trapezoid (called a trapezium in the UK)has a pair of opposite sides parallel. And a trapezium (called a trapezoid in the UK)is a quadrilateral with NO parallel sides: An Isoscelestrapezoid, as shown above, has left and right sides of equal length that join to the base at equal angles.
Hey, it looks like a kite(usually). It has two pairsof sides: Each pair is made of two equal-length sides that join up. Also: 1. the angles where the two pairs meet are equal. 2. the diagonals, shown as dashed lines above, meet at a right angle. 3. one of the diagonals bisects(cuts equally in half) the other. ... and that's it for the special quadr...
The only regular (all sides equal and all angles equal) quadrilateral is a square. So all other quadrilaterals are irregular.
Quadrilateral definitions are inclusive. This may seem odd, as in daily life we think of a square as not being a rectangle ... but in mathematics it is. Using the chart below we can answer such questions as: 1. Is a Square a type of Rectangle? (Yes) 2. Is a Rectangle a type of Kite? (No)
Three lengths are needed to form a triangle. The total sum of the two shorter lengths must be greater than the longest length. Lengths of 2 cm, 5 cm and 9 cm do not make a triangle. The 2 cm and 5 ...
In geometry, an equilateral triangle is a triangle that has all its sides equal in length. Since the three sides are equal therefore the three angles, opposite to the equal sides, are equal in measure. Therefore, it is also called an equiangular triangle, where each angle measure 60 degrees. Just like other types of triangles, an equilateral ...

- A triangle that has all its sides equal in dimension and each angle measure up to 60 degrees, is called an equilateral triangle.
- The formula to find area of equilateral triangle is given by: A = (√3/4)a2, where a is the length of side of equilateral triangle.
- The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is the sum of all its three equal sides. Perimeter = 3a, where a is the length of its sides.
- The formula to find the height of equilateral triangle is: Height, h = (√3/2)a, where a is the side of the equilateral triangle.
- An equilateral triangle is a regular polygon or a regular triangle.
- Based on sides, there are three different kinds of triangles. Their names are: Scalene triangle Isosceles triangle Equilateral triangle
- All triangles have 3 sides only.
- Perimeter = 3 x sides of equilateral triangle Perimeter = 3 x 10 = 30 cms
Scalene Triangle. No equal sides. No equal angles. How to remember? Alphabetically they go 3, 2, none: Equilateral: "equal" -lateral (lateral means side) so they have all equal sides. Isosceles: means "equal legs", and we have two legs, right? Also i SOS celes has two equal "S ides" joined by an " O dd" side.

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles. Every triangle has six exterior angles (two at each vertex are equal in measure). The exterior angles, taken one at each vertex, always sum up to 360 ° 360\degree 360°. An exterior angle is supplementary to its adjacent triangle interior angle.
