In this lesson, we will learn about acu. triangles.
00:00:08.200
For a triangle to be an acu. triangle, all the internal angles, must be less than 90 degrees.
00:00:17.120
Now, let's move this vertex, and see what happens..
00:00:23.210
Notice that, when this angle becomes 90 degrees, this triangle, is not an acu. triangle.
00:00:32.080
Next, as we continue to move this vertex, this angle is now greater than 90 degrees.
00:00:39.110
Hence, this triangle is not an acu. triangle.
00:00:45.160
Let's see some examples.
0:00:49.030
Is this an acu. triangle?
00:00:53.070
Since all the internal angles are less than 90 degrees, this is an acu. triangle.
00:01:00.080
How about this triangle?
00:01:04.020
Now, observe that, this angle is 90 degrees.
00:01:09.060
Since this angle is not less than 90 degrees, it is not an acu. triangle.
00:01:16.080
Last example, is this an acu. triangle?
00:01:22.120
Notice that, this angle is 110 degrees, which is greater than 90 degrees.
00:01:29.190
Therefore, this is not an acu. triangle.
00:01:34.120
That is all for this lesson.
