  2. Special right triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_right_triangle

    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 ...

  3. Area of a triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_a_triangle

    Taking L to be the x-axis, the line integral between consecutive vertices (x i,y i) and (x i+1,y i+1) is given by the base times the mean height, namely (x i+1 − x i)(y i + y i+1)/2. The sign of the area is an overall indicator of the direction of traversal, with negative area indicating counterclockwise traversal.

  4. 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).

  5. Hypotenuse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypotenuse

    Mathematically, this can be written as + =, where a is the length of one leg, b is the length of another leg, and c is the length of the hypotenuse. [2] For example, if one of the legs of a right angle has a length of 3 and the other has a length of 4, then their squares add up to 25 = 9 + 16 = 3 × 3 + 4 × 4.

  6. Pythagorean theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_theorem

    The triangle ABC is a right triangle, as shown in the upper part of the diagram, with BC the hypotenuse. At the same time the triangle lengths are measured as shown, with the hypotenuse of length y, the side AC of length x and the side AB of length a, as seen in the lower diagram part.

  7. Triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle

    A triangle whose sides are all the same length is an equilateral triangle, [3] a triangle with two sides having the same length is an isosceles triangle, [4] [a] and a triangle with three different-length sides is a scalene triangle. [7] A triangle in which one of the angles is a right angle is a right triangle, a triangle in which all of its ...

  8. Pentagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagon

    The regular pentagon has Dih 5 symmetry, order 10. Since 5 is a prime number there is one subgroup with dihedral symmetry: Dih 1, and 2 cyclic group symmetries: Z 5, and Z 1. These 4 symmetries can be seen in 4 distinct symmetries on the pentagon. John Conway labels these by a letter and group order. [10]

  9. Heptagonal triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heptagonal_triangle

    The heptagonal triangle's orthic triangle, with vertices at the feet of the altitudes, is similar to the heptagonal triangle, with similarity ratio 1:2. The heptagonal triangle is the only obtuse triangle that is similar to its orthic triangle (the equilateral triangle being the only acute one). [2]: pp. 12–13
