how do you measure a triangle?

Answer 1

what r u measuring?..the area, the angle or the perimeter? the area is base multiplied by half the height..the angle u need a protractor and the perimeter u just add up all the lengths.. u can find the angle without a protractor, but its easier with a protractor..:-)

Answer 2

what are you trying to measure? length of the sides, angles, area? your question is a little vague. I would assume you could put a ruler on the sides and get the length, so for angles use a protractor. Area is 1/2 base times height. hope this helps.

Answer 3

To measure a triangle you need a folding rule.
To calculate how big the foot-point is you multiply
a with b and divide it by 2.
a is a side and b is a side.

Answer 4

Measure the length of the sides with a ruler and the angles with a protractor...They add up to 180 degrees ..NOT 360!!!!

Answer 5

Is this a simple question of measuring something on a piece of paper with a protractor and a rule. Or is there some other trick in it?

Answer 6

To measure sides, just use a scale.
To measure angles use a protractor
To measure area use the equation of square root of s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c) where s=(sum of lengths of sides)/2 &a,b,c are sides.

Answer 7

Please be specific .... measure what?.
anyway the area of triangle equal to is 1/2 perpendicular x base

And the sum of all the angles must be 180 degrees.
For parameter simply add the Length of its three sides

Answer 8

If you want to measure the area:-

Base x Perpendicular Height and divide by 2

To measure the perimeter:-

Sum of the three sides

Answer 9

its a straight line... with bends...and whatever they are its never more, nor less, than 180 degrees.

and please define "measure" do you mean length or area?

wikipaedia will explainit easily enough

Answer 10

with a protractor- all angle must equal to 360 degrees
