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
Triangle length of the other sides and the angle opposite to the unknown side. As per the law: For a triangle with length of sides "a", "b", "c" and angles of α, β, γ respectively, given two known lengths of a triangle "a" and "b", and the angle between the two known sides γ (or the angle opposite to the unknown side "c"), to calculate the third side "c", the following formula can be used: If the lengths of all three sides of any triangle are known the three angles can be calculated: The law of tangents, or tangent rule, can
