Triangle Angles - B

Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a triangle?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.

Front

If one angle of a triangle is 90 degrees, what type of triangle is it?

Back

It is a right triangle.

Front

What is the relationship between the angles in an isosceles triangle?

Back

In an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite the equal sides are equal.

Front

How do you find the measure of an unknown angle in a triangle?

Back

You can find the measure of an unknown angle by subtracting the sum of the known angles from 180 degrees.

Front

What is an equilateral triangle?

Back

An equilateral triangle is a triangle where all three sides and all three angles are equal, each measuring 60 degrees.

Front

If two angles of a triangle are 45 degrees each, what is the measure of the third angle?

Back

The third angle measures 90 degrees.

Front

What is the exterior angle theorem?

Back

The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles.

Front

In a triangle, if one angle measures 30 degrees, what is the maximum possible measure of the other two angles?

Back

The maximum possible measure of the other two angles is 150 degrees combined, since the total must equal 180 degrees.

Front

What is the definition of complementary angles?

Back

Complementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 90 degrees.

Front

What is the definition of supplementary angles?

Back

Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees.
