Calabi triangle triangle or the Calabi triangle. Thus, the Calabi triangle may be defined as a triangle that is not equilateral and has three placements for its largest square. The Calabi triangle is isosceles. The ratio of the base to either leg is which approximates to 1.55138752454. In terms of trigonometric functions, it is It is the largest positive root of and has continued fraction representation [1, 1, 1, 4, 2, 1, 2, 1, 5, 2, 1, 3, 1, 1, 390, ...]. The Calabi triangle is obtuse with base angles 39.1320261...° and third angle 101.7359477...°. Calabi triangle The Calabi triangle is a
Euler angles elements of a rotation matrix are not all completely independent. For example, the rotation matrix in dimension 2 has only one degree of freedom, since all four of its elements depend on a single angle of rotation. A rotation matrix in dimension 3 (which has nine elements) has three degrees of freedom, corresponding to each independent rotation, for example by its three Euler angles or a magnitude one (unit) quaternion. In SO(4) the rotation matrix is defined by two quaternions, and is therefore 6-parametric (three degrees of freedom for every quaternion). The rotation matrices have therefore 6 out of 16
