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°.
Incircle and excircles of a triangle any vertex to the incircle tangency on either adjacent side is half the sum of the vertex's adjacent sides minus half the opposite side. Thus for example for vertex "B" and adjacent tangencies "T" and "T", The incircle radius is no greater than one-ninth the sum of the altitudes. The squared distance from the incenter "I" to the circumcenter "O" is given by and the distance from the incenter to the center "N" of the nine point circle is The incenter lies in the medial triangle (whose vertices are the midpoints of the sides). The radius of the incircle is
