Study Notes

Triangle Classification by Sides

  • Triangles can be classified into three types based on side lengths: equilateral, isosceles, and scalene.
  • Equilateral Triangle: All three sides are congruent.
  • Isosceles Triangle: Has at least two sides that are congruent.
  • Scalene Triangle: Contains no congruent sides.

Triangle Classification by Angles

  • Triangles can also be classified based on angle measures: acute, obtuse, right, and equiangular.
  • Acute Triangle: All three angles are acute (less than 90 degrees).
  • Obtuse Triangle: Contains one angle greater than 90 degrees.
  • Right Triangle: Has one right angle (exactly 90 degrees).
  • Equiangular Triangle: All three angles are congruent.

Triangle Angle Sum

  • The sum of the interior angles of a triangle always equals 180°.

Polygon Characteristics

  • A polygon is a two-dimensional shape characterized by:
    • Straight lines
    • Being closed
    • No intersecting lines

Regular Polygon Definition

  • A regular polygon has both congruent sides and congruent angles.

Common Polygons

  • Quadrilateral: A polygon with four sides.
  • Pentagon: A polygon with five sides.
  • Hexagon: A polygon with six sides.
  • Octagon: A polygon with eight sides.
  • n-gon: A polygon with n sides, where n can be any integer.

Types of Quadrilaterals

  • Trapezoid: A quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides.
  • Parallelogram: A quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.
  • Rhombus: A specific type of parallelogram with four congruent sides.
  • Rectangle: A parallelogram featuring four right angles.
  • Square: A rectangle with both four congruent sides and four right angles.

Quadrilateral Angle Sum

  • The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral always equals 360°.

Area Formulas

  • Area of a Parallelogram: A = base × height (A = bh).
  • Area of a Trapezoid: A = 1/2 × (base1 + base2) × height (A = 1/2(b1+b2)h).
