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
Heptagonal triangle heptagonal triangle's orthic triangle, with vertices at the feet of the altitudes, is similar to the heptagonal triangle, with similarity ratio 1:2. The heptagonal triangle is the only obtuse triangle that is similar to its orthic triangle (the equilateral triangle being the only acute one). The various trigonometric identities associated with the heptagonal triangle include these:, The cubic equation has solutions formula_66 and formula_67 which are the squared sines of the angles of the triangle. The positive solution of the cubic equation equals formula_69 which is twice the cosine of one of the triangle’s angles. We also have: For an
