Triangle Types

Types of triangles?
More than 5,
With three angles,
With three sides...
Sides with angles,
How they're made,
Naming shapes,
For our grade...

Right ones first,
Pythagoras knows,
All right triangles,
Fabulous those!
Now we've started,
Getting loose,
Right tri's long side?
Hy-pot-e-nuse!

Equilateral?
Sides the same,
Angles equal,
It's their game!

Isosceles?
2 equal sides,
Matched up angles,
Playground slides!

Scalene triangles,
Have one catch,
Different sides,
No angles match!

Acute triangles?
Sides in threes,
Angles small,
Like bonsai trees!

Obtuse triangle?
Angle measure,
More than 90,
What a pleasure...
That's it,
That's all,
For 3-side tricks,
For 3-side shapes,
I count 6...
That's it,
That's all,
For tri-side fun,
3 sides, 3 angles,
Used for one!
