Question

true or false? a triangle is inscribed in another figure if each vertex of the triangle lies somewhere in the interior of that figure.

a. true
b. false

Explanation:

Define inscribed polygons

Using the Inscribed Triangle and Geometric Terminology knowledge points

An inscribed polygon, such as a triangle, must have all of its vertices lying directly on the boundary of the outer figure, not in its interior.

Evaluate the statement

Using the Geometric Terminology knowledge point

Since the statement claims the vertices lie in the interior, it contradicts the definition of being inscribed, making the statement false.

Answer:

• A. True
• B. False (Correct answer)
