Olympic triangle to re-align the course to the new wind direction. With a 60, 60, 60 triangle, if the wind shifts 15 degrees either way, one of the reaching legs will be a 45-degree broad reach, while the other will be at 75 degrees to the wind and will be a close reach. Many dinghy classes have a target length for a race for the first boat. This time might take into consideration the age of competitors, how physically demanding the class is and how physically demanding the conditions are. 100 minutes is often used by Herons in Australia as an informal
Equilateral dimension equilateral dimension is the maximum number of disjoint translates that can all touch each other. For a normed vector space of dimension "d", the equilateral dimension is at most 2; that is, the L norm has the highest equilateral dimension among all normed spaces. asked whether every normed vector space of dimension "d" has equilateral dimension at least , but this remains unknown. There exist normed spaces in any dimension for which certain sets of four equilateral points cannot be extended to any larger equilateral set but these spaces may have larger equilateral sets that do not include these four
