Important Topics in Class 9 Maths Chapter 7 Triangles

Important Topics in Class 9 Maths Chapter 7 Triangles are elaborated below:

Area of Triangles

The area of a triangle is the space confined within the three sides of a triangle. For calculating its area, the base length and the height of the triangle are required.

Example: What is the formula to determine the area of a triangle?

Solution: The formula to determine the Area of a Triangle is:
Area of triangle = ½ (base x height) = ½ b x h

Perimeter of Triangles

The perimeter of a respective triangle can be defined as the sum of three sides of the triangle. For example, if a triangle has sides ABC, then the perimeter of it would be (AB + BC + AC).

Perimeter of Scalene Triangle: A + B + C
Perimeter of Iosceles Triangle: 2A + B
Perimeter of Equilateral Triangle: 3A

Congruency of Triangles

If two triangles have the same shape and size, then they are found congruent to one another.

Example: List all the followed criteria for congruency in a triangle.

Solution: The criteria of conguency in Triangles are:

SSS (side-side-side) congruency
SAS (side-angle-side) congruency
ASA (angle-side-angle) congruency
AAS (angle-angle-side) congruency
RHS (right angle-hypotenuse-side) congruency
