Question

2. A triangle has side lengths of 3, 4, and 7. what kind of triangke is it?

Answer 1

take the two smaller sides, call them a and b. call the longest side c.

if a^2 + b2 = c^2 you have a right triangle

if < c^2 it's acute
if > c^2 it's obtuse

in addition, if you can find a,b,c such that

a=b=c it's equilateral
a=b≠c it's isosceles
a≠b≠c it's scalene

plug in your numbers and make your choice.
