Classify the triangle based on the side lengths 9, 40 and 41.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isossceles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my spelling is wrong but that should be correct. all the sides are different lengths so that should be right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, it is not isosceles, isosceles has 2 equal sides, it is scalene.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes bella5 is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@lyndsaysturgeon I bet you meant to say scalene. You probably just mixed them up :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait that wasnt an option for me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here are the options a) right b) acute c) obtuse d) no triangle can be formed with given side lengths

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its acute?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

exactly 90 degrees Acute is 90 or less obtuse more than 90° and less than 180°

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which one do you think it is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*right exactly 90 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not sure I was told to do this geometry class but ive never taken it before so im not sure what the answer even is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i solve it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are 9, 40 and 41 less or higher then 90 degrees?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh so that is what it is asking........... they are all acute then because they are less than 90 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:) yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Your welcome :)
