However, in 2003, Jean-Louis Ayme discovered that Sawayama Yuzaburo , an instructor at The Central Military School of Tokyo, independently proposed and solved this problem in 1905. [ 5 ] An "external" version of this theorem, where the incircle is replaced by an excircle and the two additional circles are external to the circumcircle, is found ...

A right trapezoid (also called right-angled trapezoid) has two adjacent right angles. [15] Right trapezoids are used in the trapezoidal rule for estimating areas under a curve. An acute trapezoid has two adjacent acute angles on its longer base edge. An obtuse trapezoid on the other hand has one acute and one obtuse angle on each base.

The Latin cross puzzle consists of a reassembling a five-piece dissection of the cross with three isosceles right triangles, one right trapezoids and an irregular shaped six-sized piece (see figure). When the pieces of the cross puzzle have the right dimensions, they can also be put together as a rectangle.
In geometry, an n-gonal trapezohedron, n-trapezohedron, n-antidipyramid, n-antibipyramid, or n-deltohedron [3], [4] is the dual polyhedron of an n-gonal antiprism.The 2n faces of an n-trapezohedron are congruent and symmetrically staggered; they are called twisted kites.
In geometry, a net of a polyhedron is an arrangement of non-overlapping edge-joined polygons in the plane which can be folded (along edges) to become the faces of the polyhedron. Polyhedral nets are a useful aid to the study of polyhedra and solid geometry in general, as they allow for physical models of polyhedra to be constructed from ...
A tangential trapezoid. In Euclidean geometry, a tangential trapezoid, also called a circumscribed trapezoid, is a trapezoid whose four sides are all tangent to a circle within the trapezoid: the incircle or inscribed circle. It is the special case of a tangential quadrilateral in which at least one pair of opposite sides are parallel.
