Equilateral triangle a triangle with any two sides "a" and "b", and an angle "C" between them is Each angle of an equilateral triangle is 60°, so The sine of 60° is formula_50. Thus since all sides of an equilateral triangle are equal. Equilateral triangles have frequently appeared in man made constructions: Equilateral triangle In geometry, an equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are equal. In the familiar Euclidean geometry, an equilateral triangle is also equiangular; that is, all three internal angles are also congruent to each other and are each 60°. It is also a regular polygon,
Equilateral polygon if and only if the alternate angles are equal (that is, angles 1, 3, 5, ... are equal and angles 2, 4, ... are equal). Thus if the number of sides "n" is odd, a tangential polygon is equilateral if and only if it is regular. Viviani's theorem generalizes to equilateral polygons: The sum of the perpendicular distances from an interior point to the sides of an equilateral polygon is independent of the location of the interior point. The "principal diagonals" of a hexagon each divide the hexagon into quadrilaterals. In any convex equilateral hexagon with common side "a", there
