Edit this page Talk0. 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 a simple ratio, such as 45-45-90. This is called an angle based right triangle. A side based right triangle is one in which the lengths of the sides form a whole number ratio, such as 3-4-5. Knowing the ratios of the angles kjjkjor sides of these special right triangles allows one to quickly calculate various lengths in geometric problems without resorting to more advanced methods.
The Upper towns of the Cherokee People where located on the western edge of the Blue Ridge and Smoky Mountains in the Tennessee Valley. The Cherokee People of the Upper towns were called the Overhill Cherokee by the British prior to the American Revolutionary War. The British named this region Overhill due to the 24 mountains the British army and white traders had to cross from the Carolinas to the Tennessee River Valley. Today most visitors to the Blue Ridge and Smoky Mountains are under the impression that all of the Cherokee People lived in the interior of the mountains.
In the most notorious example of this policy, more than 15,000 members of the Cherokee tribe were forced to walk from their homes in the southern states to designated Indian Territory in present-day Oklahoma in 1838. This forced relocation became known as the âTrail of Tearsâ because of the great hardship faced by Cherokees. In brutal conditions, nearly 4,000 Cherokees died on the Trail of Tears.
