  2. Dynamic rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_rectangle

    A root-phi rectangle divides into a pair of Kepler triangles (right triangles with edge lengths in geometric progression). The rootrectangle is a dynamic rectangle but not a root rectangle. Its diagonal equals φ times the length of the shorter side. If a rootrectangle is divided by a diagonal, the result is two congruent Kepler triangles.

  4. Rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectangle

    In Euclidean plane geometry, a rectangle is a rectilinear convex polygon or a quadrilateral with four right angles.It can also be defined as: an equiangular quadrilateral, since equiangular means that all of its angles are equal (360°/4 = 90°); or a parallelogram containing a right angle.

  5. Special right triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_right_triangle

    A special right triangle is a right triangle with some regular feature that makes calculations on the triangle easier, or for which simple formulas exist. For example, a right triangle may have angles that form simple relationships, such as 45°–45°–90°. This is called an "angle-based" right triangle.

  6. Triangular number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_number

    By analogy with the square root of x, one can define the (positive) triangular root of x as the number n such that T n = x: [17] = + which follows immediately from the quadratic formula. So an integer x is triangular if and only if 8x + 1 is a square.

  7. Golden rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_rectangle

    In geometry, a golden rectangle is a rectangle with side lengths in golden ratio +:, or ⁠:, ⁠ with ⁠ ⁠ approximately equal to 1.618 or 89/55. Golden rectangles exhibit a special form of self-similarity : if a square is added to the long side, or removed from the short side, the result is a golden rectangle as well.

  8. Spiral of Theodorus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiral_of_Theodorus

    The spiral is started with an isosceles right triangle, with each leg having unit length.Another right triangle (which is the only automedian right triangle) is formed, with one leg being the hypotenuse of the prior right triangle (with length the square root of 2) and the other leg having length of 1; the length of the hypotenuse of this second right triangle is the square root of 3.

  9. Quadratic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation

    One property of this form is that it yields one valid root when a = 0, while the other root contains division by zero, because when a = 0, the quadratic equation becomes a linear equation, which has one root. By contrast, in this case, the more common formula has a division by zero for one root and an indeterminate form 0/0 for the
