Golden triangle (mathematics) Golden triangle (mathematics) A golden triangle, also known as the sublime triangle,is an isosceles triangle in which the duplicated side is in the golden ratio to the distinct side: Golden triangles are found in the nets of several stellations of dodecahedrons and icosahedrons. Also, it is the shape of the triangles found in the points of pentagrams. The vertex angle is equal to Since the angles of a triangle sum to 180°, base angles are therefore 72° each. The golden triangle can also be found in a regular decagon, or an equiangular and equilateral ten-sided polygon, by connecting any two
Schwarz triangle function Δ has angles /"a", /"b" and /"c" with "a", "b", "c" integers greater than 1. The hyperbolic area of Δ equals – /"a" – /"b" – /"c", so that The construction of a tessellation will first be carried out for the case when "a", "b" and "c" are greater than 2. The original triangle Δ gives a convex polygon "P" with 3 vertices. At each of the three vertices the triangle can be successively reflected through edges emanating from the vertices to produce 2"m" copies of the triangle where the angle at the vertex is /"m". The triangles do not
