Equilateral triangle 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, so it is also referred to as a regular triangle. Denoting the common length of the sides of the equilateral triangle as "a", we can determine using the Pythagorean theorem that: Denoting the radius of the circumscribed circle as "R", we can determine using trigonometry that: Many of these quantities
Equilateral pentagon formula_8 is the sum of its three components, and the angle formula_9 is the sum of its two components. A cyclic pentagon is equiangular if and only if it has equal sides and thus is regular. Likewise, a tangential pentagon is equilateral if and only if it has equal angles and thus is regular. The equilateral pentagon as a function of two variables can be plotted in the two-dimensional plane. Each pair of values (α, β) maps to a single point of the plane and also maps to a single pentagon. The periodicity of the values of α and β
