Segol Segol Segol ( ) is a Hebrew niqqud vowel sign that is represented by three dots forming an upside down equilateral triangle "ֶ ". As such, it resembles an upside down therefore sign (a because sign) underneath a letter. In modern Hebrew, it indicates the phoneme which is similar to "e" in the English word sound in "sell" and is transliterated as an "e". In Modern Hebrew, segol does the Hataf Segol ( , "Reduced Segol"). The reduced (or "ħataf") niqqud exist for segol, patah, and kamatz which contain a shva next to it. The following table contains the pronunciation
Heronian triangle sides is an irrational number, no equilateral triangle is Heronian. However, there is a unique sequence of Heronian triangles that are "almost equilateral" because the three sides are of the form "n" − 1, "n", "n" + 1. A method for generating all solutions to this problem based on continued fractions was described in 1864 by Edward Sang, and in 1880 Reinhold Hoppe gave a closed-form expression for the solutions. The first few examples of these almost-equilateral triangles are listed in the following table : Subsequent values of "n" can be found by multiplying the previous value by 4, then
