  1. Objectives Classify triangles by their angle measures and side lengths. Use triangle classification to find angle measures and side lengths.

  2. Vocabulary acute triangle equiangular triangle right triangle obtuse triangle equilateral triangle isosceles triangle scalene triangle

  3. Recall that a triangle is a polygon with three sides. • Triangles can be classified in two ways:

  4. C A List the sides of Triangle ABC: B List the vertices:

  5. By Angle Measures Acute Triangle Equiangular Triangle Right Triangle

  6. By Angle Measures Obtuse Triangle One obtuse angle

  7. Example 1A: Classifying Triangles by Angle Measures Classify BDC by its angle measures.

  8. Example 1B: Classifying Triangles by Angle Measures Classify ABD by its angle measures.

  9. By Side Lengths Equilateral Triangle Isosceles Triangle Scalene Triangle

  10. Remember! When you look at a figure, you cannot assume segments are congruent based on appearance. They must be marked as congruent.

  11. Example 2A: Classifying Triangles by Side Lengths Classify EHF by its side lengths.

  12. Example 2B: Classifying Triangles by Side Lengths Classify EHGby its side lengths.

  13. Example 3: Using Triangle Classification Find the side lengths of JKL.

  14. Check It Out! Example 3 Find the side lengths of equilateral FGH.
