Triangle

  • Geometry

A triangle, also called a trigon, is a plane polygon with three sides, three vertices and three internal angles. Its angles sum to a straight angle, 180 degrees or π radians. A triangle may be classified by its angles and side lengths. In Euclidean geometry, three non-collinear points determine a unique triangle. Relationships between triangle angles and side lengths are a major focus of trigonometry.
