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
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)
