  2. Incircle and excircles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incircle_and_excircles

    The ratio of the area of the incircle to the area of the triangle is less than or equal to /, with equality holding only for equilateral triangles. [ 19 ] Suppose A B C {\displaystyle \triangle ABC} has an incircle with radius r {\displaystyle r} and center I {\displaystyle I} .

  3. Area of a circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_a_circle

    Another proof that uses triangles considers the area enclosed by a circle to be made up of an infinite number of triangles (i.e. the triangles each have an angle of dπœƒ at the centre of the circle), each with an area of ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ · r 2 · dπœƒ (derived from the expression for the area of a triangle: ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ · a · b · sinπœƒ ...

  4. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    The triangle of largest area of all those inscribed in a given circle is equilateral; and the triangle of smallest area of all those circumscribed around a given circle is equilateral. [ 36 ] The ratio of the area of the incircle to the area of an equilateral triangle, π 3 3 {\displaystyle {\frac {\pi }{3{\sqrt {3}}}}} , is larger than that of ...

  5. Area of a triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_a_triangle

    The area of a triangle can be demonstrated, for example by means of the congruence of triangles, as half of the area of a parallelogram that has the same base length and height. A graphic derivation of the formula T = h 2 b {\displaystyle T={\frac {h}{2}}b} that avoids the usual procedure of doubling the area of the triangle and then halving it.

  6. Circle packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing

    A compact binary circle packing with the most similarly sized circles possible. [7] It is also the densest possible packing of discs with this size ratio (ratio of 0.6375559772 with packing fraction (area density) of 0.910683). [8] There are also a range of problems which permit the sizes of the circles to be non-uniform.

  7. Measurement of a Circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measurement_of_a_Circle

    The circle and the triangle are equal in area. ... The area of a circle is to the square on its diameter as 11 to 14. ... The ratio of the circumference of any circle ...

  8. Triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle

    The largest possible ratio of the area of the inscribed square to the area of the triangle is 1/2, which occurs when =, = /, and the altitude of the triangle from the base of length is equal to . The smallest possible ratio of the side of one inscribed square to the side of another in the same non-obtuse triangle is 2 2 / 3 {\displaystyle 2 ...

  9. Similarity (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similarity_(geometry)

    The ratio between the areas of similar figures is equal to the square of the ratio of corresponding lengths of those figures (for example, when the side of a square or the radius of a circle is multiplied by three, its area is multiplied by nine — i.e. by three squared). The altitudes of similar triangles are in the same ratio as ...
