Solution Steps

Solution Approach

To determine the type of triangle based on the given side lengths, we need to:

  1. Check if all three sides are equal for an equilateral triangle.
  2. Check if exactly two sides are equal for an isosceles triangle.
  3. Check if all three sides are different for a scalene triangle.
Step 1: Determine if the Triangle is Equilateral

To determine if a triangle is equilateral, we check if all three sides are equal: \[ a = b = c \]

Step 2: Determine if the Triangle is Isosceles

To determine if a triangle is isosceles, we check if exactly two sides are equal: \[ a = b \quad \text{or} \quad b = c \quad \text{or} \quad a = c \]

Step 3: Determine if the Triangle is Scalene

To determine if a triangle is scalene, we check if all three sides are different: \[ a \neq b \neq c \]

Final Answer

\(\boxed{a = b = c}\)
