2. Generalized trigonometry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_trigonometry

   Generalizations of trigonometric functions are often developed by starting with one of the above methods and adapting it to a situation other than the real numbers of Euclidean geometry. Generally, trigonometry can be the study of triples of points in any kind of geometry or space .

3. Lester's theorem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lester's_theorem

   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]

4. Ceva's theorem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceva's_theorem

   In Euclidean geometry, Ceva's theorem is a theorem about triangles. Given a triangle ABC, let the lines AO, BO, CO be drawn from the vertices to a common point O (not on one of the sides of ABC), to meet opposite sides at D, E, F respectively. (The segments AD, BE, CF are known as cevians.) Then, using signed lengths of segments,

5. Pappus's area theorem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pappus's_area_theorem

   Pappus's area theorem describes the relationship between the areas of three parallelograms attached to three sides of an arbitrary triangle. The theorem, which can also be thought of as a generalization of the Pythagorean theorem, is named after the Greek mathematician Pappus of Alexandria (4th century AD), who discovered it.

6. Simplex - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplex

   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. For example, a 0-dimensional simplex is a point, a 1-dimensional simplex is a line segment,

7. Brahmagupta's formula - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahmagupta's_formula

   This formula generalizes Heron's formula for the area of a triangle. A triangle may be regarded as a quadrilateral with one side of length zero. From this perspective, as d approaches zero, a cyclic quadrilateral converges into a cyclic triangle (all triangles are cyclic), and Brahmagupta's formula simplifies to Heron's formula.
