  2. Equilateral triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilateral_triangle

    An equilateral triangle is a triangle that has three equal sides. It is a special case of an isosceles triangle in the modern definition, stating that an isosceles triangle is defined at least as having two equal sides. [1] Based on the modern definition, this leads to an equilateral triangle in which one of the three sides may be considered ...

  3. Isosceles triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isosceles_triangle

    A triangle that is not isosceles (having three unequal sides) is called scalene. [4] "Isosceles" is made from the Greek roots "isos" (equal) and "skelos" (leg). The same word is used, for instance, for isosceles trapezoids, trapezoids with two equal sides, [5] and for isosceles sets, sets of points every three of which form an isosceles ...

  4. List of polygons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_polygons

    Individual polygons are named (and sometimes classified) according to the number of sides, combining a Greek-derived numerical prefix with the suffix -gon, e.g. pentagon, dodecagon. The triangle, quadrilateral and nonagon are exceptions, although the regular forms trigon, tetragon, and enneagon are sometimes encountered as well.

  5. Triangle - Wikipedia

    The triangle inequality states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than or equal to the length of the third side. [48] Conversely, some triangle with three given positive side lengths exists if and only if those side lengths satisfy the triangle inequality. [49]

  6. Special right triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_right_triangle

    Position of some special triangles in an Euler diagram of types of triangles, using the definition that isosceles triangles have at least two equal sides, i.e. equilateral triangles are isosceles. A special right triangle is a right triangle with some regular feature that makes calculations on the triangle easier

  7. Reuleaux triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reuleaux_triangle

    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. In particular, when the three points are equidistant from each other and the area is that of the Reuleaux triangle, the Reuleaux triangle is the optimal enclosure. [78]

    An equilateral triangle base and three equal isosceles triangle sides It gives 6 isometries, corresponding to the 6 isometries of the base. As permutations of the vertices, these 6 isometries are the identity 1, (123), (132), (12), (13) and (23), forming the symmetry group C 3v , isomorphic to the symmetric group , S 3 .
