Hello my wonderful Grade 5 superstar! π
I'm Kashef and today we're exploring Triangles! Triangles are everywhere β in bridges, roofs, and even slices of pizza! They are super strong shapes with 3 sides and 3 angles. Ready to become a Triangle Expert? Letβs go! π
πΊ Types of Triangles
By Sides:
- Equilateral β All sides equal, all angles 60Β°
- Isosceles β Two sides equal
- Scalene β All sides different
By Angles:
- Right Triangle β Has a 90Β° angle
- Acute Triangle β All angles less than 90Β°
- Obtuse Triangle β One angle more than 90Β°
π Important Triangle Facts
πΉ All triangles have 3 sides and 3 angles
πΉ The sum of the angles is always 180Β°
πΉ The bigger the angle, the longer the opposite side
