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
Triangle with angles α, β and γ is similar to a triangle with side lengths equal to sin α, sin β and sin γ. This triangle can be constructed by first constructing a circle of diameter 1, and inscribing in it two of the angles of the triangle. The length of the sides of that triangle will be sin α, sin β and sin γ. The side whose length is sin α is opposite to the angle whose measure is α, etc. The law of cosines, or cosine rule, connects the length of an unknown side of a triangle to the
