Special right triangle : , which follows immediately from the Pythagorean theorem. Of all right triangles, the 45°–45°–90° degree triangle has the smallest ratio of the hypotenuse to the sum of the legs, namely . Of all right triangles, the 45°–45°–90° degree triangle has the greatest ratio of the altitude from the hypotenuse to the sum of the legs, namely . Triangles with these angles are the only possible right triangles that are also isosceles triangles in Euclidean geometry. However, in spherical geometry and hyperbolic geometry, there are infinitely many different shapes of right isosceles triangles. This is a triangle whose three angles
Incircle and excircles of a triangle using the side lengths of the triangle relative to the perimeter—i.e., using the barycentric coordinates given above, normalized to sum to unity—as weights. (The weights are positive so the incenter lies inside the triangle as stated above.) If the three vertices are located at formula_14, formula_15, and formula_16, and the sides opposite these vertices have corresponding lengths formula_7, formula_8, and formula_9, then the incenter is at Denoting the incenter of triangle "ABC" as "I", the distances from the incenter to the vertices combined with the lengths of the triangle sides obey the equation Additionally, where "R" and "r" are the
