Question

a triangle has angle measurements of 44°, 77°, and 59°. what kind of triangle is it?
equilateral
isosceles but not equilateral
scalene

Explanation:

Step1: Recall triangle type definitions

• Equilateral: All angles equal ($60^\circ$ each).
• Isosceles: At least two angles equal.
• Scalene: All angles different.

Step2: Compare given angles

Given angles: $44^\circ$, $77^\circ$, $59^\circ$. All three angles are distinct (no two equal, none equal to others).

Answer:

scalene
