Coxeter decompositions of hyperbolic polygons the sum of the angles of a hyperbolic triangle is less than 180 degrees. Coxeter decompositions are named after Harold Scott MacDonald Coxeter, an accomplished 20th century geometer. He introduced the Coxeter group, an abstract group generated by reflections. These groups have many uses, including producing the rotations of Platonic solids and tessellating the plane. Given a polygon "P", a group "G" can be generated by reflecting "P" around its sides. If the angles of "P" are /"k" for natural numbers "k", then "G" will be discrete. A Coxeter decomposition of a polygon is a decomposition into a finite number
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
