Discussion
A triangle is one of the basic closed shapes of geometry. A triangle has three sides or edges and three
angles.
A triangle is a closed geometric figure formed by three lines, which intersect each other and which are
not concurrent.
All triangles have three sides and three angles. Triangles are classified as right, equilateral, isosceles, or
scalene by the measures of their sides and angles. Two triangles are similar when their corresponding
sides are in proportion to each other. Similar triangles always have equal corresponding angles. Similar
triangles have the same shape, but they are not necessarily the same size.
