Triangle – Definition and Properties The origin of term “Triangle” from latin word tri (“Three”) and angulus means (“angles”). A “Triangle” is a simple closed curve or a three sided polygon. A triangle has three angles and three sides and three vertices. It is one of the basic shape in geometry.   In Euclidean geometry any non-collinear, three points, determine a unique triangle.  The triangle […]
