Equilateral pentagon built with four equal circles disposed in a chain. In geometry , an equilateral pentagon is a polygon in the Euclidean plane with five sides of equal length . Its five vertex angles can take a range of sets of values, thus permitting it to form a family of pentagons.

Napoleon's theorem: If the triangles centered on L, M, N are equilateral, then so is the green triangle.. In geometry, Napoleon's theorem states that if equilateral triangles are constructed on the sides of any triangle, either all outward or all inward, the lines connecting the centres of those equilateral triangles themselves form an equilateral triangle.
For any interior point P, the sum of the lengths of the perpendiculars s + t + u equals the height of the equilateral triangle.. Viviani's theorem, named after Vincenzo Viviani, states that the sum of the shortest distances from any interior point to the sides of an equilateral triangle equals the length of the triangle's altitude. [1]
If each vertex angle of the outer triangle is trisected, Morley's trisector theorem states that the purple triangle will be equilateral. In plane geometry, Morley's trisector theorem states that in any triangle, the three points of intersection of the adjacent angle trisectors form an equilateral triangle, called the first Morley triangle or simply the Morley triangle.
Rewriting the inequality above allows for a more concrete geometric interpretation, which in turn provides an immediate proof. [1]+ +. Now the summands on the left side are the areas of equilateral triangles erected over the sides of the original triangle and hence the inequation states that the sum of areas of the equilateral triangles is always greater than or equal to threefold the area of ...
The distance between those points is equal in most humans and amounts on average to about 10 cm. [2] The triangle is therefore an equilateral triangle in those cases. William Gibson Arlington Bonwill (1833–1899) was the first to describe this.
Euler's theorem: = | | = In geometry, Euler's theorem states that the distance d between the circumcenter and incenter of a triangle is given by [1] [2] = or equivalently + + =, where and denote the circumradius and inradius respectively (the radii of the circumscribed circle and inscribed circle respectively).
