here are the construction steps for the triangles in your image, formatted as requested:

1) Construct an Equilateral triangle ABC, given AB=50 mm50 \text{ mm}

  1. Draw a line segment AB of length 50 mm50 \text{ mm}.

  2. Place the compass point at A and open it to a radius of 50 mm50 \text{ mm}.

    Draw an arc above the line segment AB.

  3. Place the compass point at B and, keeping the radius at 50 mm50 \text{ mm}, draw another arc that intersects the first arc.

  4. Label the point where the two arcs intersect as C.

  5. Draw straight lines to connect A to C and B to C.

    The resulting triangle ABC is an equilateral triangle with all sides measuring 50 mm.\boxed{\text{The resulting triangle ABC is an \textbf{equilateral triangle} with all sides measuring } 50 \text{ mm}.}

    2) Construct an isosceles triangle ABC, given AB=70 mm70 \text{ mm}, AC=50 mm50 \text{ mm}

  6. Draw a line segment AB of length 70 mm70 \text{ mm}.

  7. Place the compass point at A and open it to a radius of 50 mm50 \text{ mm} (length of AC).

    Draw an arc above the line segment AB.

  8. Since it's an isosceles triangle and AC = 50 mm50 \text{ mm}, the other equal side must be BC, so BC = 50 mm50 \text{ mm}.

    Place the compass point at B and, keeping the radius at 50 mm50 \text{ mm}, draw another arc that intersects the first arc.

  9. Label the point where the two arcs intersect as C.

  10. Draw straight lines to connect A to C and B to C.

    The resulting triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle with sides AB = 70 mm, AC = 50 mm, and BC = 50 mm.\boxed{\text{The resulting triangle ABC is an \textbf{isosceles triangle} with sides AB = } 70 \text{ mm, AC = } 50 \text{ mm, and BC = } 50 \text{ mm}.}

    3) Construct a scalene triangle ABC, given AB=80 mm80 \text{ mm}, AC=60 mm60 \text{ mm}, BC=40 mm40 \text{ mm}

  11. Draw a line segment AB of length 80 mm80 \text{ mm}.

  12. Place the compass point at A and open it to a radius of 60 mm60 \text{ mm} (length of AC).

    Draw an arc above the line segment AB.

  13. Place the compass point at B and open it to a radius of 40 mm40 \text{ mm} (length of BC).

    Draw another arc that intersects the first arc.

  14. Label the point where the two arcs intersect as C.

  15. Draw straight lines to connect A to C and B to C.

    The resulting triangle ABC is a scalene triangle with sides AB = 80 mm, AC = 60 mm, and BC = 40 mm.\boxed{\text{The resulting triangle ABC is a \textbf{scalene triangle} with sides AB = } 80 \text{ mm, AC = } 60 \text{ mm, and BC = } 40 \text{ mm}.}
