Right Triangle Calculator

Triangle Calculator
Compute the perimeter, area, and type of a triangle from its side lengths.

What this calculator does

This triangle calculator takes the lengths of three sides, checks whether they can form a valid triangle, and then finds the perimeter, area (using Heron's formula), and triangle type (equilateral, isosceles, scalene, and whether it's a right triangle).

Use it for geometry homework, basic engineering sketches, or anytime you need quick triangle properties from side lengths without drawing it to scale.
