Question 18
MediumOriginal questionWhich diagram best represents the relationship among Equilateral triangles, Triangles and Right-angled triangles?
Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer A
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Both equilateral triangles and right-angled triangles are triangles: both circles go inside Triangles.
Every angle of an equilateral triangle is 60°, so none is right-angled: the two inner circles do not meet.
So two separate circles inside a larger circle.
Worth noting
Two overlapping circles inside a larger one would claim a triangle that is both equilateral and right-angled, which cannot exist.
