  2. Midpoint theorem (triangle) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midpoint_theorem_(triangle)

    The midpoint theorem, midsegment theorem, or midline theorem states that if the midpoints of two sides of a triangle are connected, then the resulting line segment will be parallel to the third side and have half of its length.

  3. 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.

  4. Right triangle - Wikipedia

    The octant of a sphere is a spherical triangle with three right angles.. Spherical trigonometry is the branch of spherical geometry that deals with the metrical relationships between the sides and angles of spherical triangles, traditionally expressed using trigonometric functions.

    Shoelace scheme for determining the area of a polygon with point coordinates (,),..., (,). The shoelace formula, also known as Gauss's area formula and the surveyor's formula, [1] is a mathematical algorithm to determine the area of a simple polygon whose vertices are described by their Cartesian coordinates in the plane.

  7. Central angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_angle

    Angle AOB is a central angle. A central angle is an angle whose apex (vertex) is the center O of a circle and whose legs (sides) are radii intersecting the circle in two distinct points A and B. Central angles are subtended by an arc between those two points, and the arc length is the central angle of a circle of radius one (measured in radians). [1]
