A triangle has two perpendicular sides that are the same length which two terms describe the triangle A isosceles right B isosceles acute C isosceles obtuse D equilateral acute

1 answer

The triangle described, which has two perpendicular sides of the same length, is classified as an isosceles right triangle. Therefore, the correct term to describe the triangle is A) isosceles right.

An isosceles right triangle has:

  • Two sides that are equal in length (the two perpendicular sides)
  • One right angle (90 degrees) where the two sides meet.
