 DETERMINING A
TRIANGLE

AS RIGHT, ACUTE OR
OBTUSE USING ITS
SIDE
Triangles
- it is one of the basic
shapes in geometry: a
polygon with three vertices
and three sides, which are
all line segment.
Pythagorean theorem
- it states that the square of the
hypotenuse (the side opposite the
right angle) is equal to the sum of
the squares of the other two sides.
c2 = a 2 + b 2
Given: ∆ABC
Example no: 1

a = 12
b = 16
c = 20
Using the Pythagorean theorem formula, lets find out what types of
triangle is ∆ABC.

c
HYPOTHESIS I:
If the square of the
longest side is equal to
the sum of the shorter
sides, then the triangle is
right.
Given: ∆RED
Example no: 2

Using the Pythagorean theorem formula, lets find out what types of
triangle is ∆RED.

HYPOTHESIS II:
If the square of the
longest side is less than
the sum of the shorter
sides, then the triangle is
acute.
Given: ∆ERA
Example no: 3

a=8
b = 12
c = 15
Using the Pythagorean theorem formula, lets find out what types of
triangle is ∆ERA.

HYPOTHESIS III:
If the square of the
longest side is greater
than the sum of the
shorter sides, then the
triangle is obtuse.
