Acute and obtuse triangles "x", then If two obtuse triangles have sides ("a, b, c") and ("p, q, r") with "c" and "r" being the respective longest sides, then The Calabi triangle, which is the only non-equilateral triangle for which the largest square that fits in the interior can be positioned in any of three different ways, is obtuse and isosceles with base angles 39.1320261...° and third angle 101.7359477...°. The equilateral triangle, with three 60° angles, is acute. The Morley triangle, formed from any triangle by the intersections of its adjacent angle trisectors, is equilateral and hence acute. The golden triangle is the isosceles
Isosceles triangle an equilateral triangle. The first solutions of the problem with unbounded oscillations were found in the isosceles three-body problem. Long before isosceles triangles were studied by the ancient Greek mathematicians, the practitioners of Ancient Egyptian mathematics and Babylonian mathematics knew how to calculate their area. Problems of this type are included in the Moscow Mathematical Papyrus and Rhind Mathematical Papyrus. The theorem that the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal appears as Proposition I.5 in Euclid. This result has been called the "pons asinorum" (the bridge of asses) or the isosceles triangle theorem. Rival explanations for this name
