Error Given to Students

I was showing my kids a StudyJams video from Scholastic about classifying triangles today. They have a little test at the end of it. One of the questions was what type of triangle has three equal sides and three equal angles? The kids knew the answer to be equilateral triangle. I clicked that and the website said it was wrong. They said the correct answer was a scalene triangle. That is absolutely incorrect. I told the kids that. I also emailed Scholastic to tell them of the error and they immediately emailed me back apologizing. It surprises me that no one else has emailed them about the error. Hopefully they will fix this so other students don't get confused!
