Triangle center Since rotations and translations may be regarded as double reflections they too must preserve triangle centers. These invariance properties provide justification for the definition. Some other names for dilation are uniform scaling, isotropic scaling, homothety, and homothecy. The study of triangle centers traditionally is concerned with Euclidean geometry, but triangle centers can also be studied in hyperbolic geometry. Using gyrotrigonometry, expressions for trigonometric barycentric coordinates can be calculated that have the same form for both Euclidean and hyperbolic geometry. In order for the expressions to coincide, the expressions must "not" encapsulate the specification of the angle sum being 180 degrees.
Heptagonal triangle Heptagonal triangle A heptagonal triangle is an obtuse scalene triangle whose vertices coincide with the first, second, and fourth vertices of a regular heptagon (from an arbitrary starting vertex). Thus its sides coincide with one side and the adjacent shorter and longer diagonals of the regular heptagon. All heptagonal triangles are similar (have the same shape), and so they are collectively known as "the" heptagonal triangle. Its angles have measures formula_1 and formula_2 and it is the only triangle with angles in the ratios 1:2:4. The heptagonal triangle has various remarkable properties. The heptagonal triangle's nine-point center is also its
