  2. Cubic yard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_yard

    A cubic yard (symbol yd 3) [1] is an Imperial / U.S. customary (non-SI non-metric) unit of volume, used in Canada and the United States. It is defined as the volume of a cube with sides of 1 yard (3 feet , 36 inches , 0.9144 meters ) in length .

    A truncated cube with its octagonal faces pyritohedrally dissected with a central vertex into triangles and pentagons, creating a topological icosidodecahedron. Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a truncated hexahedron centered at the origin with edge length 2 ⁠ 1 / δ S ⁠ are all the permutations of (± ⁠ 1 / δ S ⁠, ±1, ±1 ...

  5. Heron's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heron's_formula

    There are many ways to prove Heron's formula, for example using trigonometry as below, or the incenter and one excircle of the triangle, [8] or as a special case of De Gua's theorem (for the particular case of acute triangles), [9] or as a special case of Brahmagupta's formula (for the case of a degenerate cyclic quadrilateral).

    Set square shaped as 45° - 45° - 90° triangle The side lengths of a 45° - 45° - 90° triangle 45° - 45° - 90° right triangle of hypotenuse length 1.. In plane geometry, dividing a square along its diagonal results in two isosceles right triangles, each with one right angle (90°, ⁠ π / 2 ⁠ radians) and two other congruent angles each measuring half of a right angle (45°, or ...

    Cubic curves arise naturally in the study of triangles. For example, the locus of a point P in the plane of the reference triangle ABC such that, if the reflections of P in the sidelines of triangle ABC are P a, P b, P c, then the lines AP a, BP b and CP c are concurrent is a cubic curve named Neuberg cubic.

    Barycentric coordinates (,,) on an equilateral triangle and on a right triangle. A 3-simplex, with barycentric subdivisions of 1-faces (edges) 2-faces (triangles) and 3-faces (body). In geometry , a barycentric coordinate system is a coordinate system in which the location of a point is specified by reference to a simplex (a triangle for points ...

  9. Right triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_triangle

    A right triangle ABC with its right angle at C, hypotenuse c, and legs a and b,. A right triangle or right-angled triangle, sometimes called an orthogonal triangle or rectangular triangle, is a triangle in which two sides are perpendicular, forming a right angle (1 ⁄ 4 turn or 90 degrees).
