AA postulate congruent angles. AA postulate In Euclidean geometry, the AA postulate states that two triangles are similar if they have two corresponding angles congruent. The AA postulate follows from the fact that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always equal to 180°. By knowing two angles, such as 32° and 64° degrees, we know that the next angle is 84°, because 180-(32+64)=84. (This is sometimes referred to as the AAA Postulate—which is true in all respects, but two angles are entirely sufficient.) The postulate can be better understood by working in reverse order. The two triangles on
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".
