A closed figure formed by the intersection of three non-parallel lines is called a triangle (Δ).
On the basis of the length of sides, Triangle can be classified as
1) Scalene Triangle: All three sides have different lengths.
2) Isosceles Triangle: Any two sides have equal length.
3) Equilateral Triangle: All three sides have equal lengths.
On the basis of Angles, Triangles can be classified as
1) Acute-Angled Triangle: All the angles are between 0° and 90°.
2) Obtuse-Angled Triangle: One of the angles is between 90° and 180°.
3) Right-Angled Triangle: One of the angles is 90°.
1) The sum of all the three angles of a triangle is 180°.
2) The sum of the length of any two sides of a triangle is always greater than the length of the third side.
3) The difference between any two sides of a triangle is always less than the length of the third side.
4) The side opposite to the greater angle is the longer side of a triangle in comparison to the side opposite to the smaller angle.
5) The exterior angle of a triangle is always equal to the sum of the interior opposite angles, also known as the exterior angle property of a triangle.
6) The sum of all the exterior angles of a triangle is 360°.
