Equilateral triangle Equilateral triangle In geometry, an equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are equal. In the familiar Euclidean geometry, an equilateral triangle is also equiangular; that is, all three internal angles are also congruent to each other and are each 60°. It is also a regular polygon, so it is also referred to as a regular triangle. Denoting the common length of the sides of the equilateral triangle as "a", we can determine using the Pythagorean theorem that: Denoting the radius of the circumscribed circle as "R", we can determine using trigonometry that: Many of these quantities
Three degrees of influence are only indirectly tied. They posited that diverse phenomena "ripple through our network, having an impact on our friends (one degree), our friends’ friends (two degrees), and even our friends’ friends’ friends (three degrees). Our influence gradually dissipates and ceases to have a noticeable effect on people beyond the social frontier that lies at three degrees of separation." They posited a number of reasons for this decay, including informational, psychological, and biological rationales. This argument is basically that peer effects need not stop at one degree, and that, if we can affect our friends, then we can (in many cases)
