How many equal sides does an equilateral triangle have?

  1. One

  2. Two

  3. Three

  4. None

The correct answer is: Three

An equilateral triangle is defined as a triangle in which all three sides are of equal length. This property gives the triangle its name, as "equilateral" translates to "equal sides." When you consider the geometric properties, each side is not just equal in length but also contributes to the overall symmetry of the triangle, making all angles within the triangle equal as well. Therefore, the correct response indicates that there are three equal sides in an equilateral triangle.
