Question

Nathan cut a square tile in half for his kitchen floor design. He made one cut along a diagonal from one vertex to another vertex. Which triangles resulted from the cut? 1. two scalene right triangles 2. two isosceles obtuse triangles 3. two isosceles right triangles 4. two equilateral right triangles.

Answer 1

3. Two isosceles right triangles

Every square has 4 right angles, so each triangle will have one right triangle, which makes the triangles, right triangles. 

They are isosceles because all sides of the square are the same, though the diagonal is not.

Hope this helps :)
