What to Focus On

  • A triangle has 3 sides, 3 vertices, and 3 angles.
  • It is denoted by the symbol Δ.
  • The sum of interior angles is always 180°.
  • Sum of interior angles = 180°
  • Exterior angle + adjacent interior angle = 180°
  • Exterior angle = sum of two opposite interior angles
  • Acute: all angles < 90°
  • Right: one angle = 90°
  • Obtuse: one angle > 90°

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The sum of all angles in a triangle is 360° because that's a full circle.

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to one of the interior opposite angles.

A right-angled triangle can have two right angles.

Memory Tips
