Triangle of his "Elements", around 300 BC. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle in Euclidean space is always 180 degrees. This fact is equivalent to Euclid's parallel postulate. This allows determination of the measure of the third angle of any triangle given the measure of two angles. An "exterior angle" of a triangle is an angle that is a linear pair (and hence supplementary) to an interior angle. The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two interior angles that are not adjacent to
Magic triangle (mathematics) Magic triangle (mathematics) A magic triangle (also called a perimeter magic triangle) is an arrangement of the integers from 1 to on the sides of a triangle with the same number of integers on each side, called the "order" of the triangle, so that the sum of integers on each side is a constant, the magic sum of the triangle. Unlike magic squares, there are different magic sums for magic triangles of the same order. Any magic triangle has a complementary triangle obtained by replacing each integer in the triangle with . This means that only half of the triangles
