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.

Solution of triangles (Latin: solutio triangulorum) is the main trigonometric problem of finding the characteristics of a triangle (angles and lengths of sides), when some of these are known.
The altitude from A (dashed line segment) intersects the extended base at D (a point outside the triangle). In geometry, an altitude of a triangle is a line segment through a given vertex (called apex) and perpendicular to a line containing the side or edge opposite the apex.
The Golden Triangle of Jakarta (Indonesian: Segitiga Emas Jakarta), also referred to as the Medan Merdeka–Thamrin–Sudirman Axis (Indonesian: Poros Medan Merdeka–Thamrin–Sudirman) or the Sudirman–Thamrin–Kuningan Axis (Indonesian: Poros Sudirman–Thamrin–Kuningan), is a roughly triangular area in the center of Jakarta, Indonesia, extending from Central Jakarta to South Jakarta.
The chain-ladder or development [1] method is a prominent [2] [3] actuarial loss reserving technique. The chain-ladder method is used in both the property and casualty [1] [4] and health insurance [5] fields.
