Special right triangle triangles are used to aid in calculating common trigonometric functions, as below: The 45°–45°–90° triangle, the 30°–60°–90° triangle, and the equilateral/equiangular (60°–60°–60°) triangle are the three Möbius triangles in the plane, meaning that they tessellate the plane via reflections in their sides; see Triangle group. In plane geometry, constructing the diagonal of a square results in a triangle whose three angles are in the ratio 1 : 1 : 2, adding up to 180° or radians. Hence, the angles respectively measure 45° (), 45° (), and 90° (). The sides in this triangle are in the ratio 1 : 1
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
