Shape	Properties
Triangle	A 3-sided Polygon in which any 3 sides a,b,c satisfy a+b>=c.
Triangle	A 3-sided Polygon where all internal angles A,B,C total to 180 degrees.
Triangle	A 3-sided Polygon in which the 3 sides a,b,c and 3 internal angles A,B,C satisfy the Law of Sines: a/sin(A)=b/sin(B)=c/sin(C).
Triangle	A 3-sided Polygon in which any 3 sides a,b,c and the 3 internal angles A,B,C opposite them satisfy the Law of Cosines: c2 = a2 - 2 a b cos(C) + b2.
Equilateral Triangle	A Triangle with all sides a,b,c the same length and all internal angles A,B,C equal to 60 degrees.
Isosceles Triangle	A Triangle with 2 sides a,b the same length and the 2 internal angles A,B opposite these sides the same measure.
Right Triangle	A Triangle in which the largest internal angle is 90 degrees.
Right Triangle	A Triangle in which the 3 sides a,b,c satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem: a2+b2=c2 where c is the hypotenuse (the longest side).
Right Isosceles Triangle	A Triangle with one 90 degree and two 45 degree internal angles.
Right Triangle	A Triangle with sides in the ratio 3:4:5.
Right Triangle	A Triangle with sides in the ratio 5:12:13.
Right Triangle	A Triangle with sides in the ratio of a Pythagorean Triple.
