Triangle sum to more than 180°. A hyperbolic triangle can be obtained by drawing on a negatively curved surface, such as a saddle surface, and a spherical triangle can be obtained by drawing on a positively curved surface such as a sphere. Thus, if one draws a giant triangle on the surface of the Earth, one will find that the sum of the measures of its angles is greater than 180°; in fact it will be between 180° and 540°. In particular it is possible to draw a triangle on a sphere such that the measure of each of its internal
Hyperbolic triangle relations between the sides "s" and the angles "A" of an equilateral triangle (a triangle where all sides have the same length and all angles are equal). The relations are: Whether "C" is a right angle or not, the following relationships hold: The hyperbolic law of cosines is as follows: Its dual theorem is There is also a "law of sines": and a four-parts formula: For hyperbolic trigonometry: Hyperbolic triangle In hyperbolic geometry, a hyperbolic triangle is a triangle in the hyperbolic plane. It consists of three line segments called "sides" or "edges" and three points called "angles" or "vertices".
