An isosceles right triangle ABC on a grid, with its side lengths, angles and type

What you can do

  • Drag the vertices on a 1 cm grid to see the side lengths and angles, and the triangle's type by sides and by angles.
  • Tear off the angles to make a straight angle, and explore exterior angles, the triangle inequality and area as half a parallelogram.
  • Follow SSS, SAS, ASA and SSA constructions with compasses step by step, and show altitudes, medians, perpendicular and angle bisectors, circumcircle and incircle.
  • Practise with checked answers: sort triangles in a game of 10, decide whether a triangle can be drawn, and work out angles, perimeter and area.
  • Print a worksheet for each topic or 1 cm grid paper, and save the drawing as a PNG.
