Pythagoreanism to have survived as part of, or deeply influenced, the Bacchic cults and Orphism. Pythagoras was already in ancient times well known for the mathematical achievement of the Pythagorean theorem. Although the Babylonians had used this formula for centuries, Pythagoras had discovered that "in a right-angled triangle the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the squares of the other two sides". In ancient times Pythagoras was also noted for his discovery that music had mathematical foundations. Antique sources that credit Pythagoras as the philosopher who first discovered music intervals also credit him as the inventor of the monochord, a
Sum of angles of a triangle to zero. For a spherical triangle, the sum of the angles is greater than 180° and can be up to 540°. Specifically, the sum of the angles is where "f" is the fraction of the sphere's area which is enclosed by the triangle. Note that spherical geometry does not satisfy several of Euclid's axioms (including the parallel postulate.) Angles between adjacent sides of a triangle are referred to as "interior" angles in Euclidean and other geometries. "Exterior" angles can be also defined, and the Euclidean triangle postulate can be formulated as the exterior angle theorem. One can also consider the
