  2. Triangular prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_prism

    The dihedral angle between two adjacent square faces is the internal angle of an equilateral triangle π /3 = 60°, and that between a square and a triangle is π /2 = 90°. [ 7 ] The volume of any prism is the product of the area of the base and the distance between the two bases. [ 8 ]

  3. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

    (This is the angle α opposite the "rise" side of a triangle with a right angle between vertical rise and horizontal run.) as a percentage , the formula for which is 100 × rise run {\displaystyle 100\times {\frac {\text{rise}}{\text{run}}}} which is equivalent to the tangent of the angle of inclination times 100.

  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. Isosceles triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isosceles_triangle

    In geometry, an isosceles triangle (/ aɪ ˈ s ɒ s ə l iː z /) is a triangle that has two sides of equal length and two angles of equal measure. 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 special case.

  6. Slide rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_rule

    The S, T, and ST scales are used for trig functions and multiples of trig functions, for angles in degrees. For angles from around 5.7 up to 90 degrees, sines are found by comparing the S scale with C (or D) scale. (On many closed-body rules the S scale relates to the A and B scales instead and covers angles from around 0.57 up to 90 degrees ...

  7. Pentagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagon

    To determine the length of this side, the two right triangles DCM and QCM are depicted below the circle. Using Pythagoras' theorem and two sides, the hypotenuse of the larger triangle is found as /. Side h of the smaller triangle then is found using the half-angle formula:

  8. Yield surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_surface

    The formula reduces to the Tresca criterion if =. Figure 5 shows Mohr–Coulomb yield surface in the three-dimensional space of principal stresses. It is a conical prism and determines the inclination angle of conical surface. Figure 6 shows Mohr–Coulomb yield surface in two-dimensional stress space.

  9. Geometric mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_mean

    In the case of a right triangle, its altitude is the length of a line extending perpendicularly from the hypotenuse to its 90° vertex. Imagining that this line splits the hypotenuse into two segments, the geometric mean of these segment lengths is the length of the altitude. This property is known as the geometric mean theorem.
