  2. Transversal (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    Consecutive interior angles are the two pairs of angles that: [4] [2] have distinct vertex points, lie on the same side of the transversal and; are both interior. Two lines are parallel if and only if the two angles of any pair of consecutive interior angles of any transversal are supplementary (sum to 180°).

  3. Triple product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_product

    In geometry and algebra, the triple product is a product of three 3-dimensional vectors, usually Euclidean vectors.The name "triple product" is used for two different products, the scalar-valued scalar triple product and, less often, the vector-valued vector triple product.

  4. Parallelogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram

    The base pairs form a parallelogram with half the area of the quadrilateral, A q, as the sum of the areas of the four large triangles, A l is 2 A q (each of the two pairs reconstructs the quadrilateral) while that of the small triangles, A s is a quarter of A l (half linear dimensions yields quarter area), and the area of the parallelogram is A ...

  5. Rhombus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombus

    a parallelogram in which a diagonal bisects an interior angle; a parallelogram in which at least two consecutive sides are equal in length; a parallelogram in which the diagonals are perpendicular (an orthodiagonal parallelogram) a quadrilateral with four sides of equal length (by definition)

  6. Angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle

    In general, the measures of the interior angles of a simple convex polygon with n sides add up to (n − 2) π radians, or (n − 2)180 degrees, (n − 2)2 right angles, or (n − 2) ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ turn. The supplement of an interior angle is called an exterior angle; that is, an interior angle and an exterior angle form a linear pair of angles ...

  7. Parallelogram law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram_law

    Vectors involved in the parallelogram law. In a normed space, the statement of the parallelogram law is an equation relating norms: ‖ ‖ + ‖ ‖ = ‖ + ‖ + ‖ ‖,.. The parallelogram law is equivalent to the seemingly weaker statement: ‖ ‖ + ‖ ‖ ‖ + ‖ + ‖ ‖, because the reverse inequality can be obtained from it by substituting (+) for , and () for , and then simplifying.

  8. Rhomboid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhomboid

    Traditionally, in two-dimensional geometry, a rhomboid is a parallelogram in which adjacent sides are of unequal lengths and angles are non-right angled.. The terms "rhomboid" and "parallelogram" are often erroneously conflated with each other (i.e, when most people refer to a "parallelogram" they almost always mean a rhomboid, a specific subtype of parallelogram); however, while all rhomboids ...

  9. Area of a triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_a_triangle

    The oriented relative area of a parallelogram in any affine space, a type of bivector, is defined as ⁠ ⁠ where ⁠ ⁠ and ⁠ ⁠ are translation vectors from one vertex of the parallelogram to each of the two adjacent vertices. In Euclidean space, the magnitude of this bivector is a well-defined scalar number representing the area of the ...
