In 2015, an anonymous Japanese woman using the pen name "aerile re" published the first known method (the method of 3 circumcenters) to construct a proof in elementary geometry for a special class of adventitious quadrangles problem. [7] [8] [9] This work solves the first of the three unsolved problems listed by Rigby in his 1978 paper. [5]
Ordinary trigonometry studies triangles in the Euclidean plane .There are a number of ways of defining the ordinary Euclidean geometric trigonometric functions on real numbers, for example right-angled triangle definitions, unit circle definitions, series definitions [broken anchor], definitions via differential equations [broken anchor], and definitions using functional equations.
In 2000, Bernard Gibert proposed a generalization of the Lester Theorem involving the Kiepert hyperbola of a triangle. His result can be stated as follows: Every circle with a diameter that is a chord of the Kiepert hyperbola and perpendicular to the triangle's Euler line passes through the Fermat points. [11] [12]
Ceva's theorem, case 1: the three lines are concurrent at a point O inside ABC Ceva's theorem, case 2: the three lines are concurrent at a point O outside ABC. In Euclidean geometry, Ceva's theorem is a theorem about triangles.
In geometry, a simplex (plural: simplexes or simplices) is a generalization of the notion of a triangle or tetrahedron to arbitrary dimensions. The simplex is so-named because it represents the simplest possible polytope in any given dimension.
A triangulated category is an additive category D with a translation functor and a class of triangles, called exact triangles [2] (or distinguished triangles), satisfying the following properties (TR 1), (TR 2), (TR 3) and (TR 4). (These axioms are not entirely independent, since (TR 3) can be derived from the others.
The special case in which the subgraph is a triangle is known as the triangle removal lemma. [2] The graph removal lemma can be used to prove Roth's theorem on 3-term arithmetic progressions, [3] and a generalization of it, the hypergraph removal lemma, can be used to prove Szemerédi's theorem. [4] It also has applications to property testing. [5]
Relatives of the Reuleaux triangle arise in the problem of finding the minimum perimeter shape that encloses a fixed amount of area and includes three specified points in the plane. For a wide range of choices of the area parameter, the optimal solution to this problem will be a curved triangle whose three sides are circular arcs with equal radii.
