  2. Sum of angles of a triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum_of_angles_of_a_triangle

    In a Euclidean space, the sum of angles of a triangle equals a straight angle (180 degrees, π radians, two right angles, or a half-turn). A triangle has three angles, one at each vertex , bounded by a pair of adjacent sides .

  3. Triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle

    A triangle has three internal angles, each one bounded by a pair of adjacent edges; the sum of angles of a triangle always equals a straight angle (180 degrees or π radians). The triangle is a plane figure and its interior is a planar region.

  4. Saccheri–Legendre theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saccheri–Legendre_theorem

    In absolute geometry, the Saccheri–Legendre theorem states that the sum of the angles in a triangle is at most 180°. [1] Absolute geometry is the geometry obtained from assuming all the axioms that lead to Euclidean geometry with the exception of the axiom that is equivalent to the parallel postulate of Euclid.

  5. Euclidean geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_geometry

    The triangle angle sum theorem states that the sum of the three angles of any triangle, in this case angles α, β, and γ, will always equal 180 degrees. The Pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the areas of the two squares on the legs ( a and b ) of a right triangle equals the area of the square on the hypotenuse ( c ).

  6. AA postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AA_postulate

    The AA postulate follows from the fact that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always equal to 180°. By knowing two angles, such as 32° and 64° degrees, we know that the next angle is 84°, because 180-(32+64)=84. (This is sometimes referred to as the AAA Postulate—which is true in all respects, but two angles are entirely ...

  7. Exact trigonometric values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_trigonometric_values

    The values of sine and cosine of 30 and 60 degrees are derived by analysis of the equilateral triangle. In an equilateral triangle, the 3 angles are equal and sum to 180°, therefore each corner angle is 60°. Bisecting one corner, the special right triangle with angles 30-60-90 is obtained.

  8. Parallel postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_postulate

    There exists a triangle whose angles add up to 180°. The sum of the angles is the same for every triangle. There exists a pair of similar, but not congruent, triangles. Every triangle can be circumscribed. If three angles of a quadrilateral are right angles, then the fourth angle is also a right angle. There exists a quadrilateral in which all ...

  9. Spherical geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_geometry

    The sum of the angles of a spherical triangle is not equal to 180°. A sphere is a curved surface, but locally the laws of the flat (planar) Euclidean geometry are good approximations. In a small triangle on the face of the earth, the sum of the angles is only slightly more than 180 degrees. A sphere with a spherical triangle on it.
