Math Problem Statement
Solution
I can help analyze and solve the problems in the uploaded image. Let me process its content.
From the image:
-
Part a:
You are required to classify the triangles labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F into the categories listed in the table:- Acutangoli (acute triangles)
- Ottusangoli (obtuse triangles)
- Rettangoli (right triangles)
- Scaleni (scalene triangles)
- Isosceli (isosceles triangles)
- Equilateri (equilateral triangles)
-
Part b:
For each statement, you must choose one of the following:- Può essere (can be)
- È sempre (is always)
- Non è mai (is never)
I'll now analyze and solve these step by step:
Part a: Triangle Classification
-
A: Right triangle (rettangolo), scalene (scaleno)
(It has a right angle and all sides appear to have different lengths.) -
B: Acute triangle (acutangolo), isosceles (isoscele)
(It has all angles less than 90° and two sides of equal length.) -
C: Right triangle (rettangolo), isosceles (isoscele)
(It has a right angle and two equal sides.) -
D: Acute triangle (acutangolo), scalene (scaleno)
(All angles are less than 90° and all sides are of different lengths.) -
E: Obtuse triangle (ottusangolo), scalene (scaleno)
(It has an angle greater than 90° and all sides of different lengths.) -
F: Acute triangle (acutangolo), equilateral (equilatero)
(All angles are less than 90° and all sides are equal.)
Part b: Statements
-
Un triangolo rettangolo ... isoscele.
Può essere (can be).
A right triangle can be isosceles if its two legs are of equal length. -
Un triangolo equilatero ... rettangolo.
Non è mai (is never).
An equilateral triangle cannot be a right triangle because all its angles are equal (60°). -
Un triangolo rettangolo ... acutangolo.
Non è mai (is never).
A right triangle cannot be acute since it already has a right angle (90°). -
Un triangolo isoscele ... ottusangolo.
Può essere (can be).
An isosceles triangle can be obtuse if one angle is greater than 90°.
Let me know if you need detailed explanations for any part! Here are five related questions for practice:
Related Questions
- What is the difference between an acute triangle and an obtuse triangle?
- Can a scalene triangle also be a right triangle? Why or why not?
- What are the properties of an equilateral triangle?
- How can you identify if a triangle is isosceles from its angles?
- Can a triangle have two obtuse angles? Explain.
Tip:
When classifying triangles, always focus on their angles first (acute, right, or obtuse), then their sides (scalene, isosceles, or equilateral).
