This week for maths we have been learning about triangles such as their degree and what type of triangles there are. A few tasks we had to do was to find the missing angle in the equation and also name what triangle we were looking at. An Equilateral triangle is a triangle with all even sides. The full degree of a triangle is 180 degrees which means each side would equal 60 degree's. An Isosceles triangle is where two angles are the same which are mostly the two sides. For example if the two sides were both 80 degree's that would leave 20 degree's which would be the base. Then there is the scalene triangle which means every side is different. We were also identifying what angle the triangle had in it. There is an acute angle, obtuse angle, right angle and a reflex. Here are some pictures.
Bula Mya!
ReplyDeleteYour explanation of the different types of angles is very clear and easy to understand. You could be a teacher one day! If a triangle had 2 x 45 degree angles, what would the other angle be? What sort of triangle would it be? What sort of triangle is the one at the bottom? I always remember an acute triangle being less than 180 degrees as being small and cute - get it, a.. cute triangle?? Funny, eh! And an obtuse one is bigger than 180 because obtuse starts like obese... big! That's enough hilarity!
See ya
