The sum of the angles in every triangle is 180°. There exists a triangle whose angles add up to 180°. The sum of the angles is the same for every triangle. There exists a pair of similar, but not congruent, triangles. Every triangle can be circumscribed. If three angles of a quadrilateral are right angles, then the fourth angle is also a right angle. There exists a quadrilateral of which all angles are right angles. There exists a pair of straight lines that are at constant distance from each other. Two lines that are parallel to the same line are also parallel to each other. Given two parallel lines, any line that intersects one of them also intersects the other. In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the other two sides (Pythagoras' Theorem). There is no upper limit to the area of a triangle. [1] |
