What is Fig. 8 called on account of its three equal sides? On account
of its three equal angles?
Every equilateral triangle is also equiangular.
Every equiangular triangle is also equilateral.
Name a triangle that has no two sides equal to each other.
It is called a _scalene triangle_.
What kind of a triangle is Fig. 5 on account of its right angle?
What kind on account of its three unequal sides?
Then it is a _right-angled scalene triangle_.
What name can you give Fig. 11 on account of the angle _g e f_?
On account of its three unequal sides?
Then what may it be called?
