Pascal's triangle Construct a "d"-dimensional triangle (a 3-dimensional triangle is a tetrahedron) by placing additional dots below an initial dot, corresponding to P(1) = 1. Place these dots in a manner analogous to the placement of numbers in Pascal's triangle. To find P("x"), have a total of "x" dots composing the target shape. P("x") then equals the total number of dots in the shape. A 0-dimensional triangle is a point and a 1-dimensional triangle is simply a line, and therefore P("x") = "1" and P("x") = "x", which is the sequence of natural numbers. The number of dots in each layer corresponds
Equilateral triangle the location of "P". Pompeiu's theorem states that, if "P" is an arbitrary point in an equilateral triangle "ABC", then there exists a triangle with sides of lengths "PA", "PB", and "PC". That is, "PA", "PB", and "PC" satisfy the triangle inequality that any two of them sum to at least as great as the third. By Euler's inequality, the equilateral triangle has the smallest ratio "R"/"r" of the circumradius to the inradius of any triangle: specifically, "R"/"r" = 2. The triangle of largest area of all those inscribed in a given circle is equilateral; and the triangle of smallest
