Euclidean geometry equal (SAS), or two angles and a side equal (ASA) (Book I, propositions 4, 8, and 26). Triangles with three equal angles (AAA) are similar, but not necessarily congruent. Also, triangles with two equal sides and an adjacent angle are not necessarily equal or congruent. The sum of the angles of a triangle is equal to a straight angle (180 degrees). This causes an equilateral triangle to have three interior angles of 60 degrees. Also, it causes every triangle to have at least two acute angles and up to one obtuse or right angle. The celebrated Pythagorean theorem (book I,
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
