Saccheri–Legendre theorem Saccheri–Legendre theorem In absolute geometry, the Saccheri–Legendre theorem states that the sum of the angles in a triangle is at most 180°. 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. The theorem is named after Giovanni Girolamo Saccheri and Adrien-Marie Legendre. The existence of at least one triangle with angle sum of 180 degrees in absolute geometry implies Euclid's parallel postulate. Similarly, the existence of at least one triangle with angle sum of less than 180 degrees
360 Degrees of Billy Paul was similarly enthusiastic in discussing how Paul's sound developed over the years from the early club jazz of "Feelin' Good at the Cadillac Club" (1968) to the merging of jazz and soul on "Going East" (1971): "and then we did Billy's "360 Degrees" album and it all came together with "Me & Mrs. Jones." During his appearance on "Soul Train" in October 1972, Paul was asked by host Don Cornelius whether he had a jazz background. Paul used the opportunity to promote his new album and highlight its diverse styles: “That's very correct. I've been singing since I was 11.
