Classifying triangles worksheets

Each print is a different sheet with its own answer key. You don't need to sign up.

A triangle gets its name from its angles or its sides. A square mark means a right angle, and matching ticks mean equal sides.

Two grades, each its own sheet. Print one here, or open a grade for examples and teaching notes.

Print by grade

  1. 4th grade Core grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Each print is a different sheet with its own answer key. You don't need to sign up.

    Classifying triangles worksheets for fourth grade show one drawn triangle per problem with three names to circle: acute, right, or obtuse. Right angles carry a small square mark, and the deciding question is always how the biggest angle compares to a square corner.

  2. 5th grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Fifth grade alternates the two naming systems: half the problems classify by angles (acute, right, obtuse) and half by sides (equilateral, isosceles, scalene). One triangle can hold a name from each family, like a right isosceles triangle.
