Triangle group is Euclidean if the angle sum is exactly π, spherical if it exceeds π and hyperbolic if it is strictly smaller than π. Moreover, any two triangles with the given angles are congruent. Each triangle group determines a tiling, which is conventionally colored in two colors, so that any two adjacent tiles have opposite colors. In terms of the numbers "l", "m", "n" > 1 there are the following possibilities. formula_4 The triangle group is the infinite symmetry group of a certain tessellation (or tiling) of the Euclidean plane by triangles whose angles add up to π (or 180°).

Proofs of trigonometric identities division identity They remain valid for angles greater than 90° and for negative angles. Or Two angles whose sum is π/2 radians (90 degrees) are "complementary". In the diagram, the angles at vertices A and B are complementary, so we can exchange a and b, and change θ to π/2 − θ, obtaining: Identity 1: The following two results follow from this and the ratio identities. To obtain the first, divide both sides of formula_21 by formula_23; for the second, divide by formula_24. Similarly Identity 2: The following accounts for all three reciprocal functions. Proof 2: Refer to the triangle
