Olympic triangle be perfectly sharp, either, since it is a course. Traditionally the configuration of the triangle is an equilateral triangle (3 equal sides and 3 equal angles of 60 degrees) with a ratio of the windward leg to a reaching leg being 1:1. In that case the course length for the 9 legs described above is 9 times the length of the windward leg. The angle at each point of the triangle is 60 degrees. The windward leg is generally aligned with the average wind direction. Another configuration is a triangle with a right angle at the wing mark and 45
Equilateral triangle have simple relationships to the altitude ("h") of each vertex from the opposite side: In an equilateral triangle, the altitudes, the angle bisectors, the perpendicular bisectors, and the medians to each side coincide. A triangle "ABC" that has the sides "a", "b", "c", semiperimeter "s", area "T", exradii "r", "r", "r" (tangent to "a", "b", "c" respectively), and where "R" and "r" are the radii of the circumcircle and incircle respectively, is equilateral if and only if any one of the statements in the following nine categories is true. Thus these are properties that are unique to equilateral triangles, and
