  2. Triangulation (topology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangulation_(topology)

    A space that admits such a homeomorphism is called a triangulable space. Triangulations can also be used to define a piecewise linear structure for a space, if one exists. Triangulation has various applications both in and outside of mathematics, for instance in algebraic topology, in complex analysis, and in modeling.

  3. Triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle

    Triangles have many types based on the length of the sides and the angles. A triangle whose sides are all the same length is an equilateral triangle, [3] a triangle with two sides having the same length is an isosceles triangle, [4] [a] and a triangle with three different-length sides is a scalene triangle. [7]

  4. Triangular space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_space

    The triangular space (also known as the medial triangular space, [1] upper triangular space, [2] medial axillary space or foramen omotricipitale [3]) is one of the three spaces found at the axillary space. The other two spaces are the quadrangular space and the triangular interval. [4]

    Let be a metric space with distance function .Let be a set of indices and let () be a tuple (indexed collection) of nonempty subsets (the sites) in the space .The Voronoi cell, or Voronoi region, , associated with the site is the set of all points in whose distance to is not greater than their distance to the other sites , where is any index different from .

  6. Triangulation (surveying) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangulation_(surveying)

    Snell calculated how the planar formulae could be corrected to allow for the curvature of the earth. He also showed how to resection, or calculate, the position of a point inside a triangle using the angles cast between the vertices at the unknown point. These could be measured much more accurately than bearings of the vertices, which depended ...

  7. Barycentric coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barycentric_coordinate_system

    Barycentric coordinates (,,) on an equilateral triangle and on a right triangle. A 3-simplex, with barycentric subdivisions of 1-faces (edges) 2-faces (triangles) and 3-faces (body). In geometry , a barycentric coordinate system is a coordinate system in which the location of a point is specified by reference to a simplex (a triangle for points ...

  8. Tetrahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedron

    A space-filling tetrahedron packs with directly congruent or enantiomorphous (mirror image) copies of itself to tile space. [15] The cube can be dissected into six 3-orthoschemes, three left-handed and three right-handed (one of each at each cube face), and cubes can fill space, so the characteristic 3-orthoscheme of the cube is a space-filling ...

  9. Order-8 triangular tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order-8_triangular_tiling

    In geometry, the order-8 triangular tiling is a regular tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It is represented by Schläfli symbol of {3,8} , having eight regular triangles around each vertex. Uniform colorings
