Triangle (not to scale)

20 comments

I know, shitpost and all, but this is possible in non-Euclidean geometry
- A triangle with 90° angles, yes.
  But not a four sided TRIANGLE. That itself is a contradiction.
  
  One of the angles is 180 though so imagine what the two sides joined there would look like. After all this isn’t to scale.
- Why does it have to be non-Euclidean geometry? It seems like it would work fine as a regular (normal? Euclidean?) 30-30-60 triangle.
  Edit: I can't read. 30-60-90 triangle.
  
  60 ノ༼ ຈل͜ຈノ ༽ here you dropped this

my head hurts

Sum of interior angles of a triangle should be 180° so this is not a triangle. It is a square or maybe 2 triangles
- The 180° angle is just a (really weird) way of representing a long, straight, line. The rest of the angles add up to 180°.

This is on a computer. 2 triangles obviously.
