Question

Sita got a wooden square plate and cut it diagonally, as shown in the figure below. After cutting it, she saw that two triangles are formed.

Can you tell what type of triangles are formed?

• A. Equilateral
• B. Isoceles
• C. Scalene
• D. Can't be determined

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Isoceles

If a square is cut diagonally, two sides will be equal (sides of a square).
The third side will not be equal as it is a diagonal.

Hence it will be an isosceles triangle.
