You need to tell what you are given and what you want to solve.

One of the special triangles comes from cutting a square shape in half along one diagonal, giving 45-45-90 type triangle.

Another special triangle is the Equilateral type (which also has all three angles congruent). If cut in half along an altitude, this creates another special triangle, of the 30-60-90 type right triangle.
