CONSTRUCTION & PROPERTIES

OF
TRIANGLES
 INTRODUCTION

Triangles are geometric figures having:

2. Three vertices
3. Three sides
4. Three angles
sides are:AB,BC,CA, PQ,QR,QP
angles are: A,B,C,P,Q,R
 Types of triangle

Acute angle triangle

Obtuse angle triangle
Right angle triangle
Scalene triangle
Isosceles triangle
Equilateral triangle

 PROPERTIES

1. If in two triangles the corresponding angles are

equal, then there corresponding sides are
proportional and hence the triangles are similar.

3. These property is referred to as the AAA Similarity

criterion for to triangles.
If the corresponding sides of to triangles are
proportional there corresponding angles are
equal and hence the triangles are similar.
 Areas of two
Triangles
 If two triangles have equal area then there
corresponding sides are in the same ratio.
