FAQs on Unit Test: Triangles - Mathematics (Maths) Class 10

1. What are the different types of triangles based on their sides?
2. How do you determine if three lengths can form a triangle?
Ans. To determine if three lengths can form a triangle, you can use the triangle inequality theorem. The sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side for all three combinations.
3. What are the types of triangles based on their angles?
Ans. Triangles can also be classified based on their angles into three types: acute triangles (all angles less than 90 degrees), right triangles (one angle exactly 90 degrees), and obtuse triangles (one angle greater than 90 degrees).
4. How do you calculate the area of a triangle?
Ans. The area of a triangle can be calculated using the formula: Area = 1/2 × base × height. You can also use Heron's formula if you know all three side lengths.
5. What is the Pythagorean theorem and how does it apply to right triangles?
Ans. The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides. This is expressed as a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse.
