Triangle inequality ≥ b ≥ c" and "formula_8" is the golden ratio, as In the case of right triangles, the triangle inequality specializes to the statement that the hypotenuse is greater than either of the two sides, and less than their sum. The second part of this theorem is already established above for any side of any triangle. The first part is established using the lower figure. In the figure, consider the right triangle . An isosceles triangle is constructed with equal sides . From the triangle postulate, the angles in the right triangle satisfy: Likewise, in the isosceles triangle , the
Special right triangle allows one to quickly calculate various lengths in geometric problems without resorting to more advanced methods. "Angle-based" special right triangles are specified by the relationships of the angles of which the triangle is composed. The angles of these triangles are such that the larger (right) angle, which is 90 degrees or radians, is equal to the sum of the other two angles. The side lengths are generally deduced from the basis of the unit circle or other geometric methods. This approach may be used to rapidly reproduce the values of trigonometric functions for the angles 30°, 45°, and 60°. Special
