Think of a triangle whose three sides are all the same length. 🔺

How to build EQUILATERAL from the tiles

In 7 Little Words you don't type the answer — you assemble it from the puzzle's shared tile bank, and every tile is used exactly once across all seven answers. Puzzle 5's tiles for August 19, 2026 are:

SLIP · SHE · ET · DRAM · AT · URGE · VITR · IO · LIC · EQU · ILAT · ERAL · GRI · ZZ · LI · ES · CAR · AT · SIN · US

EQUILATERAL is built by combining the tiles EQU · ILAT · ERAL in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in EQUILATERAL early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
