Sum of angles of a triangle answer was proven to be positive: in other spaces (geometries) this sum can be greater or lesser, but it then must depend on the triangle. Its difference from 180° is a case of "angular defect" and serves as an important distinction for geometric systems. In Euclidean geometry, the triangle postulate states that the sum of the angles of a triangle is two right angles. This postulate is equivalent to the parallel postulate. In the presence of the other axioms of Euclidean geometry, the following statements are equivalent: The sum of the angles of a hyperbolic triangle is less than 180°.
Schwarz triangle function classification of arithmetic triangle groups (there are only finitely many) and determined when two of them are commensurable. The particular example is related to Bring's curve and the arithmetic theory implies that the triangle group for Δ contains the triangle group for the triangle Δ with angles /4, /4 and /5 as a non-normal subgroup of index 6. Doubling the triangles Δ and Δ, this implies that there should be a relation between 6 triangles Δ with angles /2, /5 and /5 and hyperbolic area /10 and a triangle Δ with angles /5, /5 and /10 and hyperbolic area 3/5.
