Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Triple meter, also known as triple time, is time signature characterised by three beats to the bar. In triple meter, the first beat of the bar is strong, and the second and third beats are weak. A waltz or three-four time is an example of a triple meter. (Think one-two-three, one-two, three).

The Blue Danube Waltz by Strauss is a good example/

The Second movement of Haydn's 94th symphony is in two-four time which is not a triple meter.

To use another famous dancing example, The Can Can by Offenbach is a famous piece of music in two-four time.
