Triangle facts

 Triangle facts

Name of different triangles:

 equilateral, right isosceles, obtuse isosceles, acute isosceles, right scalene, obtuse scalene, and acute.


Pythagoras :
He is mainly remembered for what has become known as Pythagoras' Theorem (or the Pythagorean Theorem): that, for any right-angled triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse 

Triangle angles:
All triangles have internal angles that add up to 180° , no matter the type of triangle. An isosceles triangle will have two angles the same size. In an equilateral triangle, all angles will be 60° . A right-angled triangle will have one angle that is 90


Pythagoras who,what,where?
Pythagoras was a Greek philosopher and mathematician.Pythagoras was born about 570 BCE on the island of Samos.

What is square root?
Square root, in mathematics, a factor of a number that, when multiplied by itself, gives the original number.

What is Sin,Cosine,tan?
Sin is equal to the side opposite the angle that you are conducting the functions on over the hypotenuse which is the longest side in the triangle. Cos is adjacent over hypotenuse. And tan is opposite over adjacent, which means tan is sin/cos. this is proven by the algebra.

What is a radian?
a radian is a unit of measurement of angles equal to about 57.3 degrees.

What is degrees?
Degrees are a unit of angle measure. A full circle is divided into 360 degrees. For example, a right angle is 90 degrees. A degree has the symbol °.
