INTRODUCTION We are studying mathematics right from

our primary classes .We had already studied the construction of various

geometric figures. Polygons are the most important set of mathematical

figures. There are very complex polygons with

a number of sides. TRIANGLES are the most simplest polygon. There are

different types of triangles & we have their construction in our chapters. This project is made in order to bring an

awareness about the construction of equilateral triangles.

METHODOLOGYThe required information was

collected from the lX th standard mathematics text book.

7

AIMS To bring an awareness about the

properties of an equilateral ls. To know about the construction of

equilateral ls.

AN EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE

PROPERTIES:

All sides are equal.

All angles are 60

CONCLUSION

By doing this project, we conclude that construction of

equilateral is very easy & interesting.
