Set square, shaped as 30° - 60° - 90°° triangle The side lengths of a 30°–60°–90° triangle 30° - 60° - 90° right triangle of hypotenuse length 1. This is a triangle whose three angles are in the ratio 1 : 2 : 3 and respectively measure 30° ( π / 6 ), 60° ( π / 3 ), and 90° ( π / 2 ).
A 30°–60°–90° triangle has sides of length 1, 2, and . When two such triangles are placed in the positions shown in the illustration, the smallest rectangle that can enclose them has width 1 + 3 {\displaystyle 1+{\sqrt {3}}} and height 3 {\displaystyle {\sqrt {3}}} .
A right triangle is a triangle containing one right angle of 90°. Two particular forms of right triangle have attracted the attention of rep-tile researchers, the 45°-90°-45° triangle and the 30°-60°-90° triangle.
These set squares come in two usual forms, both right triangles: one with 90-45-45 degree angles, the other with 30-60-90 degree angles. Combining the two forms by placing the hypotenuses together will also yield 15° and 75° angles.
30–60–90 triangle. In recreational mathematics, a polydrafter is a polyform with a 30°–60°–90° right triangle as the base form. This triangle is also called a drafting triangle, hence the name. [1]

Regular set square triangles differ (from a Marquois scales triangle) by being made and used according to the angles of their triangle (eg 45-45-90 or 30-60-90 degrees) rather than according to the ratio between the lengths of their sides.
It is constructed by congruent 30-60-90 triangles with 4, 6, and 12 triangles meeting at each vertex. Subdividing the faces of these tilings creates the kisrhombille tiling. (Compare the disdyakis hexa- , dodeca- and triacontahedron , three Catalan solids similar to this tiling.)
