Classifying Triangles

[size=100]Triangles can be classified in TWO ways:[br][/size]1. Number of Congruent Sides[br]2. Angle Measure[br][br]Think of it as every triangle has a FIRST name and a LAST name, where its first name is its Congruent Side Classification and its last name is its Angle Measure classification.
