Let’s solve each part of the worksheet step by step.

##
Part 1: Classify each triangle by the length of its SIDES
1. Triangle with all angles 60° and all sides marked with single tick marks
- All three sides are equal (indicated by identical tick marks).
-
Classification: Equilateral triangle
>
✔ Answer: Equilateral
---
2. Triangle with a right angle and two sides marked with single tick marks
- Two sides are equal (tick marks), and one angle is 90°.
- This is an
isosceles right triangle — but since we’re classifying by *side lengths*, it’s
isosceles.
- (Note: “Isosceles” means at least two sides equal — which is true here.)
>
✔ Answer: Isosceles
---
3. Triangle with angles 45°, 70°, 65° and all three sides marked differently (single, double, triple tick marks)
- All three sides have different markings → all sides are unequal.
-
Classification: Scalene triangle
>
✔ Answer: Scalene

##
Part 2: Classify each triangle by its ANGLES
4. Triangle with angles 45°, 70°, 65°
- All angles are less than 90° →
acute triangle
- (Even though side lengths vary, we’re classifying by angles.)
>
✔ Answer: Acute
---
5. Triangle with all angles 60°
- All angles < 90° → still
acute
- Also equiangular, but classification by angles is
acute
>
✔ Answer: Acute
---
6. Triangle with a right angle (square symbol) and two sides equal (tick marks)
- Has one 90° angle →
right triangle
- (We ignore side equality for angle classification — just look at angles.)
>
✔ Answer: Right
---
##
Part 3: Find the value of ‘x’ in each of the following
7. Triangle with angles x°, 52°, and 35°
- The sum of interior angles in any triangle is always
180°.
- So:
>
x + 52 + 35 = 180
>
x + 87 = 180
>
x = 180 - 87 = 93
>
✔ Answer: 93

1.
Equilateral
2.
Isosceles
3.
Scalene
4.
Acute
5.
Acute
6.
Right
7.
93
