Math

In math today we learned about eguilateral, isoselous, and scalene triangles. An equilateral triangle is a traingle that has 3 equal sides. An isoselous triangle is a triangle with 2 equal sides and an opposite side. An scalene triangle has 3 different sides, none of them are the same.




Examples:

1. If a triangle has sides that are all 9cm. It is a equilateral triangle because all the sides are the same.

2. If you have a triangle with a side that is 3cm, 5cm and 7cm. It is an scalene triangle because none of the sides are the same.

3. If you have a triangle with sides that are 4cm, 4cm, and 2cm. It is a isoselous triangle because 2 of the sides are the same and one of them is different.
