What if you were given the angle measures and/or side lengths of a triangle? How would you describe the triangle based on that information? After completing this Concept, you’ll be able to classify a triangle as right, obtuse, acute, equiangular, scalene, isosceles, and/or equilateral.

James Sousa:Types of Triangles Guidance A triangle is any closed figure made by three line segments intersecting at their endpoints. Every triangle has three vertices (the points where the segments meet), three sides (the segments), and three interior angles (formed at each vertex). All of the following shapes are triangles. The sum of the interior angles in a triangle is 180◦ . This is called the Triangle Sum Theorem and is discussed further TriangleSumTheorem. Angles can be classified by their size as acute, obtuse or right. In any triangle, two of the angles will always be acute. The third angle can be acute, obtuse, or right. We classify each triangle by this angle. Right Triangle: A triangle with one right angle. Obtuse Triangle: A triangle with one obtuse angle. 1 www.ck12.org Acute Triangle: A triangle where all three angles are acute. Equiangular Triangle: A triangle where all the angles are congruent. You can also classify a triangle by its sides. Scalene Triangle: A triangle where all three sides are different lengths. Isosceles Triangle: A triangle with at least two congruent sides. Equilateral Triangle: A triangle with three congruent sides. Note that from the definitions, an equilateral triangle is also an isosceles triangle. 2 www.ck12.org Chapter 1. Triangle Classification Example A Which of the figures below are not triangles? B is not a triangle because it has one curved side. D is not closed, so it is not a triangle either. Example B Which term best describes �RST below? This triangle has one labeled obtuse angle of 92◦ . Triangles can have only one obtuse angle, so it is an obtuse triangle. Example C Classify the triangle by its sides and angles. We see that there are two congruent sides, so it is isosceles. By the angles, they all look acute. We say this is an acute isosceles triangle. Vocabulary A triangle is any closed figure made by three line segments intersecting at their endpoints. Every triangle has three vertices (the points where the segments meet), three sides (the segments), and three interior angles (formed at each vertex). A right triangle is a triangle with one right angle. An obtuse triangle is a triangle with one obtuse angle. An acute triangle is a triangle where all three angles are acute. An equiangular triangle is a triangle with all congruent angles. A scalene triangle is a triangle where all three sides are different lengths. An isosceles triangle is a triangle with at least two congruent sides. An equilateral triangle is a triangle with three congruent sides. 3 www.ck12.org Guided Practice 1. How many triangles are in the diagram below? 2. Classify the triangle by its sides and angles. 3. True or false: An equilateral triangle is equiangular. Answers: 1. Start by counting the smallest triangles, 16. Now count the triangles that are formed by 4 of the smaller triangles, 7. Next, count the triangles that are formed by 9 of the smaller triangles, 3. Finally, there is the one triangle formed by all 16 smaller triangles. Adding these numbers together, we get 16 + 7 + 3 + 1 = 27. 4 www.ck12.org Chapter 1. Triangle Classification 2. This triangle has a right angle and no sides are marked congruent. So, it is a right scalene triangle. 3. True.

Example A What is m� T ? We know that the three angles in the triangle must add up to 180◦ . To solve this problem, set up an equation and substitute in the information you know. m� M + m� A + m� T = 180◦ 82◦ + 27◦ + m� T = 180◦ 109◦ + m� T = 180◦ m� T = 71◦ Example B What is the measure of each angle in an equiangular triangle? 7 www.ck12.org To solve, remember that �ABC is an equiangular triangle, so all three angles are equal. Write an equation. m� A + m� B + m� C = 180◦ m� A + m� A + m� A = 180◦ 3m� A = 180 ◦ Substitute, all angles are equal. Combine like terms. ◦ m� A = 60 If m� A = 60◦ , then m� B = 60◦ and m� C = 60◦ . Each angle in an equiangular triangle is 60◦ . Example C Find the measure of the missing angle. We know that m� O = 41◦ and m� G = 90◦ because it is a right angle. Set up an equation like in Example A. m� D + m� O + m� G = 180◦ m� D + 41◦ + 90◦ = 180◦ m� D + 41◦ = 90◦ m� D = 49◦ Vocabulary A triangle is a three sided shape.

James Sousa:Proof of the Exterior Angles Theorem Guidance An Exterior Angle is the angle formed by one side of a polygon and the extension of the adjacent side. In all polygons, there are two sets of exterior angles, one that goes around clockwise and the other goes around counterclockwise. 12 www.ck12.org Chapter 3. Exterior Angles Theorems Notice that the interior angle and its adjacent exterior angle form a linear pair and add up to 180◦ . m� 1 + m� 2 = 180◦ There are two important theorems to know involving exterior angles: the Exterior Angle Sum Theorem and the Exterior Angle Theorem. The Exterior Angle Sum Theorem states that the exterior angles of any polygon will always add up to 360◦ . m� 1 + m� 2 + m� 3 = 360◦ m� 4 + m� 5 + m� 6 = 360◦ . The Exterior Angle Theorem states that an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of its remote interior angles. (Remote Interior Angles are the two interior angles in a triangle that are not adjacent to the indicated exterior angle.) m� A + m� B = m� ACD . 13 www.ck12.org Example A Find the measure of � RQS. Notice that 112◦ is an exterior angle of �RQS and is supplementary to � RQS. Set up an equation to solve for the missing angle. 112◦ + m� RQS = 180◦ m� RQS = 68◦ Example B Find the measures of the numbered interior and exterior angles in the triangle. We know that m� 1 + 92◦ = 180◦ because they form a linear pair. So, m� 1 = 88◦ . Similarly, m� 2 + 123◦ = 180◦ because they form a linear pair. So, m� 2 = 57◦ . We also know that the three interior angles must add up to 180◦ by the Triangle Sum Theorem. m� 1 + m� 2 + m� 3 = 180◦ ◦ by the Triangle Sum Theorem. ◦ 88 + 57 + m� 3 = 180 m� 3 = 35◦ Lastly, m� 3 + m� 4 = 180◦ ◦ 35 + m� m� 4 = 180 4 = 145◦ Example C What is the value of p in the triangle below? 14 ◦ because they form a linear pair. www.ck12.org Chapter 3. Exterior Angles Theorems First, we need to find the missing exterior angle, which we will call x. Set up an equation using the Exterior Angle Sum Theorem. 130◦ + 110◦ + x = 360◦ x = 360◦ − 130◦ − 110◦ x = 120◦ x and p add up to 180◦ because they are a linear pair. x + p = 180◦ 120◦ + p = 180◦ p = 60◦ Vocabulary Interior Angles are the angles on the inside of a polygon while Exterior Angles are the angles on the outside of a polygon. Remote Interior Angles are the two angles in a triangle that are not adjacent to the indicated exterior angle. Two angles that make a straight line form a Linear Pair and thus add up to 180◦ . The Triangle Sum Theorem states that the three interior angles of any triangle will always add up to 180◦ . Guided Practice 1. Find m� C. 2. Two interior angles of a triangle are 40◦ and 73◦ . What are the measures of the three exterior angles of the triangle? 3. Find the value of x and the measure of each angle. 15 www.ck12.org Answers: 1. Using the Exterior Angle Theorem m� C + 16◦ = 121◦ m� C = 105◦ If you forget the Exterior Angle Theorem, you can do this problem just like Example C. 2. Remember that every interior angle forms a linear pair (adds up to 180◦ ) with an exterior angle. So, since one of the interior angles is 40◦ that means that one of the exterior angles is 140◦ (because 40 + 140 = 180). Similarly, since another one of the interior angles is 73◦ , one of the exterior angles must be 107◦ . The third interior angle is not given to us, but we could figure it out using the Triangle Sum Theorem. We can also use the Exterior Angle Sum Theorem. If two of the exterior angles are 140◦ and 107◦ , then the third Exterior Angle must be 113◦ since 140 + 107 + 113 = 360. So, the measures of the three exterior angles are 140, 107 and 113. 3. Set up an equation using the Exterior Angle Theorem. (4x + 2)◦ + (2x − 9)◦ = (5x + 13)◦ ↑ � remote interior angles ↑ exterior angle ◦ (6x − 7) = (5x + 13)◦ x = 20 Substitute in 20 for x to find each angle. [4(20) + 2]◦ = 82◦ [2(20) − 9]◦ = 31◦ Practice Determine m� 1. 1. 2. 16 Exterior angle: [5(20) + 13]◦ = 113◦ www.ck12.org Chapter 3. Exterior Angles Theorems 3. 4. 5. 6. Use the following picture for the next three problems: 7. What is m� 1 + m� 2 + m� 3? 8. What is m� 4 + m� 5 + m� 6? 9. What is m� 7 + m� 8 + m� 9? Solve for x. 10. 17 www.ck12.org 11. 12. 18 www.ck12.org C HAPTER Chapter 4. Third Angle Theorem 4 Third Angle Theorem Here you’ll learn the Third Angle Theorem: If two triangles have two pairs of angles that are congruent, then the third pair of angles will be congruent. What if you were given �FGH and �XY Z and you were told that F∼ =� X � and � G∼ =� Y ? What conclusion could you draw about � H and � Z? After completing this Concept, you’ll be able to make such a conclusion. Guidance If two angles in one triangle are congruent to two angles in another triangle, then the third pair of angles must also congruent. This is called the Third Angle Theorem. If � A ∼ = � D and � B ∼ = � E, then � C ∼ = � F. Example A Determine the measure of the missing angles. From the Third Angle Theorem, we know � C ∼ = � F. From the Triangle Sum Theorem, we know that the sum of the ◦ interior angles in each triangle is 180 . m� A + m� B + m� C = 180◦ m� D + m� B + m� C = 180◦ 42◦ + 83◦ + m� C = 180◦ m� C = 55◦ = m� F 19 www.ck12.org Example B Explain why the Third Angle Theorem works. The Third Angle Theorem is really like an extension of the Triangle Sum Theorem. Once you know two angles in a triangle, you automatically know the third because of the Triangle Sum Theorem. This means that if you have two triangles with two pairs of angles congruent between them, when you use the Triangle Sum Theorem on each triangle to come up with the third angle you will get the same answer both times. Therefore, the third pair of angles must also be congruent. Example C Determine the measure of all the angles in the triangle: First we can see that m� DCA = 15◦ . This means that m� BAC = 15◦ also because they are alternate interior angles. m� ABC = 153◦ was given. This means by the Triangle Sum Theorem that m� BCA = 12◦ . This means that m� CAD = 12◦ also because they are alternate interior angles. Finally, m� ADC = 153◦ by the Triangle Sum Theorem. Vocabulary Two figures are congruent if they have exactly the same size and shape. Two triangles are congruent if the three corresponding angles and sides are congruent. The Triangle Sum Theorem states that the measure of the three interior angles of any triangle will add up to 180◦ . Guided Practice Determine the measure of all the angles in the each triangle. 1. 2. 20 www.ck12.org Chapter 4. Third Angle Theorem 3. Answers: 1. m� A = 86, m� C = 42 and by the Triangle Sum Theorem m� B = 52. m� Y = 42, m� X = 86 and by the Triangle Sum Theorem, m� Z = 52. 2. m� C = m� A = m� Y = m� Z = 35. By the Triangle Sum Theorem m� B = m� X = 110. 3. m� A = 28, m� ABE = 90 and by the Triangle Sum Theorem, m� E = 62. m� D = m� E = 62 because they are alternate interior angles and the lines are parallel. m� C = m� A = 28 because they are alternate interior angles and the lines are parallel. m� DBC = m� ABE = 90 because they are vertical angles.
