Internal angle (degrees) 60°. In geometry, an equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides have the same length. In the familiar Euclidean geometry, an equilateral triangle is also equiangular; that is, all three internal angles are also congruent to each other and are each 60°.
In mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem or Pythagoras' theorem is a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry between the three sides of a right triangle. It states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides.
Solution of triangles. Solution of triangles (Latin: solutio triangulorum) is the main trigonometric problem of finding the characteristics of a triangle (angles and lengths of sides), when some of these are known. The triangle can be located on a plane or on a sphere. Applications requiring triangle solutions include geodesy, astronomy ...
Apollonius's theorem. In geometry, Apollonius's theorem is a theorem relating the length of a median of a triangle to the lengths of its sides. It states that the sum of the squares of any two sides of any triangle equals twice the square on half the third side, together with twice the square on the median bisecting the third side.
Sum of angles of a triangle. In a Euclidean space, the sum of angles of a triangle equals a straight angle (180 degrees, π radians, two right angles, or a half- turn). A triangle has three angles, one at each vertex, bounded by a pair of adjacent sides. It was unknown for a long time whether other geometries exist, for which this sum is different.
A triangle is a polygon with three corners and three sides, one of the basic shapes in geometry. The corners, also called vertices, are zero- dimensional points while the sides connecting them, also called edges, are one-dimensional line segments. A triangle has three internal angles, each one bounded by a pair of adjacent edges; the sum of ...
Main parameters and notation. The parameters most commonly appearing in triangle inequalities are: the side lengths a, b, and c; the semiperimeter s = (a + b + c) / 2 (half the perimeter p); the angle measures A, B, and C of the angles of the vertices opposite the respective sides a, b, and c (with the vertices denoted with the same symbols as ...
convex, cyclic. Dual polygon. Self-dual. In geometry, an isosceles triangle (/ aɪˈsɒsəliːz /) is a triangle that has two sides of equal length. Sometimes it is specified as having exactly two sides of equal length, and sometimes as having at least two sides of equal length, the latter version thus including the equilateral triangle as a ...
