Exterior angle theorem sum of angles of a triangle is 180°. If it is known that the sum of the measures of the angles in a triangle is 180°, then the HSEAT is proved as follows: On the other hand, if the HSEAT is taken as a true statement then: Proving that the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°. The Euclidean proof of the HSEAT (and simultaneously the result on the sum of the angles of a triangle) starts by constructing the line parallel to side "AB" passing through point "C" and then using the properties of
Integer triangle harmonic progression. This is because such angles have to be rational angles of the form with rational 0 < < 1. But all the angles of integer triangles must have rational cosines and this will occur only when = i.e. the integer triangle is equilateral. The square of each internal angle bisector of an integer triangle is rational, because the general triangle formula for the internal angle bisector of angle "A" is formula_2 where "s" is the semiperimeter (and likewise for the other angles' bisectors). Any altitude dropped from a vertex onto an opposite side or its extension will split
