Which kind of triangle is given in the drawing?
As we know that sides AB, BC, and CA are all equal to 6,
All are equal to each other and, therefore, the triangle is equilateral.
Equilateral triangle
In a right triangle, the side opposite the right angle is called....?
Equilateral means all 3 sides are equal, while isosceles means only 2 sides are equal. Think of it as: equilateral = equal all, isosceles = equal two.
Look for three identical measurements on all sides! If you see the same number (like 6, 6, 6), it's equilateral. No measuring needed - just compare the given values.
Yes! Equilateral triangles always have three 60° angles. Equal sides means equal angles - that's a special property of equilateral triangles.
Then it would be an isosceles triangle, not equilateral. Remember: all three sides must be equal for equilateral classification.
Technically yes, but we classify it as equilateral because that's more specific. Every equilateral triangle is also isosceles, but not every isosceles triangle is equilateral.
