Foundations of geometry and therefore are valid theorems in absolute geometry. Proposition I.31 proves the existence of parallel lines (by construction). Also, the Saccheri–Legendre theorem, which states that the sum of the angles in a triangle is at most 180°, can be proved. The theorems of absolute geometry hold in hyperbolic geometry as well as in Euclidean geometry. Absolute geometry is inconsistent with elliptic geometry: in elliptic geometry there are no parallel lines at all, but in absolute geometry parallel lines do exist. Also, in elliptic geometry, the sum of the angles in any triangle is greater than 180°. Logically, the axioms do
Solution of triangles third angle by using the angle sum property of a triangle, then find the other two sides using the law of sines. The general spherical triangle is fully determined by three of its six characteristics (3 sides and 3 angles). Note that the sides of a spherical triangle are measured by angular rather than linear units, based on the corresponding central angles. The solution of triangles for non-Euclidean spherical geometry has some differences from the planar case. For example, the sum of the three angles depends on the triangle. In addition, there are no unequal similar triangles, and so the
