Answer:

5 is D

6 is C

Explanation:

Define:

Equilateral - All sides and angles are congruent

Isosceles: Two congruent sides and two congruent angles

Scalene: No congruent sides or angles

Right triangle: A triangle with a right angle ( note that a right angle has a measure of 90 degrees )

obtuse triangle: A triangle with an obtuse angle ( obtuse angles have a measure of more than 90 degrees. )

Acute triangle : A triangle with an acute angle ( an acute angle has a measure of less than 90 degrees )

Answer:

the triangle shown in # 5 has a right angle and 2 congruent sides and angles

Therefore the triangle in #5 is a right isosceles

The triangle shown in #6 has an angle with a measure that is more than 90 degrees and have no congruent sides or angles therefore the triangle in #6 is an obtuse scalene.
