In geometry, an equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides have the same length. In the familiar Euclidean geometry, an equilateral triangle is also equiangular; that is, all three internal angles are also congruent to each other and are each 60°. It is also a regular polygon, so it is also referred to as a regular triangle.

## Principal properties

Denoting the common length of the sides of the equilateral triangle as ${\displaystyle a}$, we can determine using the Pythagorean theorem that:

• The area is ${\displaystyle A={\frac {\sqrt {3}}{4}}a^{2}}$,
• The perimeter is ${\displaystyle p=3a\,\!}$
• The radius of the circumscribed circle is ${\displaystyle R={\frac {a}{\sqrt {3}}}}$
• The radius of the inscribed circle is ${\displaystyle r={\frac {\sqrt {3}}{6}}a}$ or ${\displaystyle r={\frac {R}{2}}}$
• The geometric center of the triangle is the center of the circumscribed and inscribed circles
• The altitude (height) from any side is ${\displaystyle h={\frac {\sqrt {3}}{2}}a}$

Denoting the radius of the circumscribed circle as R, we can determine using trigonometry that:

• The area of the triangle is ${\displaystyle \mathrm {A} ={\frac {3{\sqrt {3}}}{4}}R^{2}}$

Many of these quantities have simple relationships to the altitude ("h") of each vertex from the opposite side:

• The area is ${\displaystyle A={\frac {h^{2}}{\sqrt {3}}}}$
• The height of the center from each side, or apothem, is ${\displaystyle {\frac {h}{3}}}$
• The radius of the circle circumscribing the three vertices is ${\displaystyle R={\frac {2h}{3}}}$
• The radius of the inscribed circle is ${\displaystyle r={\frac {h}{3}}}$

In an equilateral triangle, the altitudes, the angle bisectors, the perpendicular bisectors, and the medians to each side coincide.

## Characterizations

A triangle ABC that has the sides a, b, c, semiperimeter s, area T, exradii ra, rb, rc (tangent to a, b, c respectively), and where R and r are the radii of the circumcircle and incircle respectively, is equilateral if and only if any one of the statements in the following nine categories is true. Thus these are properties that are unique to equilateral triangles, and knowing that any one of them is true directly implies that we have an equilateral triangle.

### Sides

• ${\displaystyle a=b=c}$
• ${\displaystyle {\frac {1}{a}}+{\frac {1}{b}}+{\frac {1}{c}}={\frac {\sqrt {25Rr-2r^{2}}}{4Rr}}}$ [1]

### Semiperimeter

• ${\displaystyle s=2R+\left(3{\sqrt {3}}-4\right)r}$ [2] (Blundon)
• ${\displaystyle s^{2}=3r^{2}+12Rr}$ [3]
• ${\displaystyle s^{2}=3{\sqrt {3}}T}$ [4]
• ${\displaystyle s=3{\sqrt {3}}r}$
• ${\displaystyle s={\frac {3{\sqrt {3}}}{2}}R}$

### Angles

• ${\displaystyle A=B=C=60^{\circ }}$
• ${\displaystyle \cos {A}+\cos {B}+\cos {C}={\frac {3}{2}}}$
• ${\displaystyle \sin {\frac {A}{2}}\sin {\frac {B}{2}}\sin {\frac {C}{2}}={\frac {1}{8}}}$ [5]

### Area

• ${\displaystyle T={\frac {a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2}}{4{\sqrt {3}}}}\quad }$ (Weitzenböck) [6]
• ${\displaystyle T={\frac {\sqrt {3}}{4}}(abc)^{\frac {2}{3}}}$ [4]

• ${\displaystyle R=2r}$ [7] (Chapple-Euler)
• ${\displaystyle 9R^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2}}$ [7]
• ${\displaystyle r={\frac {r_{a}+r_{b}+r_{c}}{9}}}$ [5]
• ${\displaystyle r_{a}=r_{b}=r_{c}}$

### Equal cevians

Three kinds of cevians coincide, and are equal, for (and only for) equilateral triangles: [8]

### Coincident triangle centers

Every triangle center of an equilateral triangle coincides with its centroid, which implies that the equilateral triangle is the only triangle with no Euler line connecting some of the centers. For some pairs of triangle centers, the fact that they coincide is enough to ensure that the triangle is equilateral. In particular:

### Six triangles formed by partitioning by the medians

For any triangle, the three medians partition the triangle into six smaller triangles.

• A triangle is equilateral if and only if any three of the smaller triangles have either the same perimeter or the same inradius. [10] :Theorem 1
• A triangle is equilateral if and only if the circumcenters of any three of the smaller triangles have the same distance from the centroid. [10] :Corollary 7

### Points in the plane

• A triangle is equilateral if and only if, for every point P in the plane, with distances p, q, and r to the triangle's sides and distances x, y, and z to its vertices, [11] :p.178,#235.4
${\displaystyle 4\left(p^{2}+q^{2}+r^{2}\right)\geq x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}.}$

## Notable theorems

Morley's trisector theorem states that, in any triangle, the three points of intersection of the adjacent angle trisectors form an equilateral triangle.

Napoleon's theorem states that, if equilateral triangles are constructed on the sides of any triangle, either all outward, or all inward, the centers of those equilateral triangles themselves form an equilateral triangle.

A version of the isoperimetric inequality for triangles states that the triangle of greatest area among all those with a given perimeter is equilateral. [12]

Viviani's theorem states that, for any interior point P in an equilateral triangle with distances d, e, and f from the sides and altitude h,

${\displaystyle d+e+f=h,}$

independent of the location of P. [13]

Pompeiu's theorem states that, if P is an arbitrary point in the plane of an equilateral triangle ABC but not on its circumcircle, then there exists a triangle with sides of lengths PA, PB, and PC. That is, PA, PB, and PC satisfy the triangle inequality that the sum of any two of them is greater than the third. If P is on the circumcircle then the sum of the two smaller ones equals the longest and the triangle has degenerated into a line, this case is known as Van Schooten's theorem.

## Other properties

By Euler's inequality, the equilateral triangle has the smallest ratio R/r of the circumradius to the inradius of any triangle: specifically, R/r = 2. [14] :p.198

The triangle of largest area of all those inscribed in a given circle is equilateral; and the triangle of smallest area of all those circumscribed around a given circle is equilateral. [15]

The ratio of the area of the incircle to the area of an equilateral triangle, ${\displaystyle {\frac {\pi }{3{\sqrt {3}}}}}$, is larger than that of any non-equilateral triangle. [16] :Theorem 4.1

The ratio of the area to the square of the perimeter of an equilateral triangle, ${\displaystyle {\frac {1}{12{\sqrt {3}}}},}$ is larger than that for any other triangle. [12]

If a segment splits an equilateral triangle into two regions with equal perimeters and with areas A1 and A2, then [11] :p.151,#J26

${\displaystyle {\frac {7}{9}}\leq {\frac {A_{1}}{A_{2}}}\leq {\frac {9}{7}}.}$

If a triangle is placed in the complex plane with complex vertices z1, z2, and z3, then for either non-real cube root ${\displaystyle \omega }$ of 1 the triangle is equilateral if and only if [17] :Lemma 2

${\displaystyle z_{1}+\omega z_{2}+\omega ^{2}z_{3}=0.}$

Given a point P in the interior of an equilateral triangle, the ratio of the sum of its distances from the vertices to the sum of its distances from the sides is greater than or equal to 2, equality holding when P is the centroid. In no other triangle is there a point for which this ratio is as small as 2. [18] This is the Erdős–Mordell inequality; a stronger variant of it is Barrow's inequality, which replaces the perpendicular distances to the sides with the distances from P to the points where the angle bisectors of ∠APB, ∠BPC, and ∠CPA cross the sides (A, B, and C being the vertices).

For any point P in the plane, with distances p, q, and t from the vertices A, B, and C respectively, [19]

${\displaystyle 3\left(p^{4}+q^{4}+t^{4}+a^{4}\right)=\left(p^{2}+q^{2}+t^{2}+a^{2}\right)^{2}.}$

For any point P in the plane, with distances p, q, and t from the vertices, [20]

${\displaystyle p^{2}+q^{2}+t^{2}=3\left(R^{2}+L^{2}\right)}$

and

${\displaystyle p^{4}+q^{4}+t^{4}=3\left[\left(R^{2}+L^{2}\right)^{2}+2R^{2}L^{2}\right],}$

where R is the circumscribed radius and L is the distance between point P and the centroid of the equilateral triangle.

For any point P on the inscribed circle of an equilateral triangle, with distances p, q, and t from the vertices, [21]

${\displaystyle 4\left(p^{2}+q^{2}+t^{2}\right)=5a^{2}}$

and

${\displaystyle 16\left(p^{4}+q^{4}+t^{4}\right)=11a^{4}.}$

For any point P on the minor arc BC of the circumcircle, with distances p, q, and t from A, B, and C respectively, [13]

${\displaystyle p=q+t}$

and

${\displaystyle q^{2}+qt+t^{2}=a^{2};}$

moreover, if point D on side BC divides PA into segments PD and DA with DA having length z and PD having length y, then [13] :172

${\displaystyle z={\frac {t^{2}+tq+q^{2}}{t+q}},}$

which also equals ${\textstyle {\tfrac {t^{3}-q^{3}}{t^{2}-q^{2}}}}$ if tq; and

${\displaystyle {\frac {1}{q}}+{\frac {1}{t}}={\frac {1}{y}},}$

which is the optic equation.

There are numerous triangle inequalities that hold with equality if and only if the triangle is equilateral.

An equilateral triangle is the most symmetrical triangle, having 3 lines of reflection and rotational symmetry of order 3 about its center. Its symmetry group is the dihedral group of order 6 D3.

Equilateral triangles are the only triangles whose Steiner inellipse is a circle (specifically, it is the incircle).

The integer-sided equilateral triangle is the only triangle with integer sides and three rational angles as measured in degrees. [22]

The equilateral triangle is the only acute triangle that is similar to its orthic triangle (with vertices at the feet of the altitudes) (the heptagonal triangle being the only obtuse one). [23] :p. 19

The equilateral triangle can be inscribed inside any other regular polygon, including itself, with the square being the only other regular polygon with this property.

The equilateral triangle tiles two dimensional space, with six triangles meeting at a vertex. It has a regular dual tessellation, the hexagonal tiling. 3.122, 3.4.6.4, (3.6)2, 32.4.3.4, and 34.6 are all semi-regular tessellations constructed with equilateral triangles.

Equilateral triangles are found in many other geometric constructs. The intersection of circles whose centers are a radius width apart is a pair of equilateral arches, each of which can be inscribed with an equilateral triangle. In three dimensions, they form faces of regular and uniform polyhedra. Three of the five Platonic solids are composed of equilateral triangles: the tetrahedron, octahedron and icosahedron. In particular, the tetrahedron, which has four equilateral triangles for faces, can be considered the three-dimensional analogue of the triangle. All Platonic solids can inscribe tetrahedra, as well as be inscribed inside tetrahedra.

Also in the third dimension, equilateral triangles form uniform antiprisms as well as uniform star antiprisms. For antiprisms, two (non-mirrored) parallel copies of regular polygons are connected by alternating bands of 2n triangles. Specifically for star antiprisms, there are prograde and retrograde (crossed) solutions that join mirrored and non-mirrored parallel star polygons.

The equilateral triangle belongs to the infinite family of n-simplexes, with n=2.

## Geometric construction

An equilateral triangle is easily constructed using a straightedge and compass, because 3 is a Fermat prime. Draw a straight line, and place the point of the compass on one end of the line, and swing an arc from that point to the other point of the line segment. Repeat with the other side of the line. Finally, connect the point where the two arcs intersect with each end of the line segment

An alternative method is to draw a circle with radius r, place the point of the compass on the circle and draw another circle with the same radius. The two circles will intersect in two points. An equilateral triangle can be constructed by taking the two centers of the circles and either of the points of intersection.

In both methods a by-product is the formation of vesica piscis.

The proof that the resulting figure is an equilateral triangle is the first proposition in Book I of Euclid's Elements.

## Derivation of area formula

The area formula ${\displaystyle A={\frac {\sqrt {3}}{4}}a^{2}}$ in terms of side length a can be derived directly using the Pythagorean theorem or using trigonometry.

### Using the Pythagorean theorem

The area of a triangle is half of one side a times the height h from that side:

${\displaystyle A={\frac {1}{2}}ah.}$

The legs of either right triangle formed by an altitude of the equilateral triangle are half of the base a, and the hypotenuse is the side a of the equilateral triangle. The height of an equilateral triangle can be found using the Pythagorean theorem

${\displaystyle \left({\frac {a}{2}}\right)^{2}+h^{2}=a^{2}}$

so that

${\displaystyle h={\frac {\sqrt {3}}{2}}a.}$

Substituting h into the area formula 1/2ah gives the area formula for the equilateral triangle:

${\displaystyle A={\frac {\sqrt {3}}{4}}a^{2}.}$

### Using trigonometry

Using trigonometry, the area of a triangle with any two sides a and b, and an angle C between them is

${\displaystyle A={\frac {1}{2}}ab\sin C.}$

Each angle of an equilateral triangle is 60°, so

${\displaystyle A={\frac {1}{2}}ab\sin 60^{\circ }.}$

The sine of 60° is ${\displaystyle {\tfrac {\sqrt {3}}{2}}}$. Thus

${\displaystyle A={\frac {1}{2}}ab\times {\frac {\sqrt {3}}{2}}={\frac {\sqrt {3}}{4}}ab={\frac {\sqrt {3}}{4}}a^{2}}$

since all sides of an equilateral triangle are equal.

## In culture and society

Equilateral triangles have frequently appeared in man made constructions:

Area is the quantity that expresses the extent of a region on the plane or on a curved surface. The area of a plane region or plane area refers to the area of a shape or planar lamina, while surface area refers to the area of an open surface or the boundary of a three-dimensional object. Area can be understood as the amount of material with a given thickness that would be necessary to fashion a model of the shape, or the amount of paint necessary to cover the surface with a single coat. It is the two-dimensional analogue of the length of a curve or the volume of a solid.

In geometry a quadrilateral is a four-sided polygon, having four edges (sides) and four corners (vertices). The word is derived from the Latin words quadri, a variant of four, and latus, meaning "side". It is also called a tetragon, derived from greek "tetra" meaning "four" and "gon" meaning "corner" or "angle", in analogy to other polygons. Since "gon" means "angle", it is analogously called a quadrangle, or 4-angle. A quadrilateral with vertices , , and is sometimes denoted as .

A triangle is a polygon with three edges and three vertices. It is one of the basic shapes in geometry. A triangle with vertices A, B, and C is denoted .

In mathematics, the triangle inequality states that for any triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than or equal to the length of the remaining side. This statement permits the inclusion of degenerate triangles, but some authors, especially those writing about elementary geometry, will exclude this possibility, thus leaving out the possibility of equality. If x, y, and z are the lengths of the sides of the triangle, with no side being greater than z, then the triangle inequality states that

In geometry, a hexagon is a six-sided polygon or 6-gon. The total of the internal angles of any simple (non-self-intersecting) hexagon is 720°.

In geometry, an altitude of a triangle is a line segment through a vertex and perpendicular to a line containing the base. This line containing the opposite side is called the extended base of the altitude. The intersection of the extended base and the altitude is called the foot of the altitude. The length of the altitude, often simply called "the altitude", is the distance between the extended base and the vertex. The process of drawing the altitude from the vertex to the foot is known as dropping the altitude at that vertex. It is a special case of orthogonal projection.

In geometry, the incircle or inscribed circle of a triangle is the largest circle that can be contained in the triangle; it touches the three sides. The center of the incircle is a triangle center called the triangle's incenter.

In Euclidean geometry, a cyclic quadrilateral or inscribed quadrilateral is a quadrilateral whose vertices all lie on a single circle. This circle is called the circumcircle or circumscribed circle, and the vertices are said to be concyclic. The center of the circle and its radius are called the circumcenter and the circumradius respectively. Other names for these quadrilaterals are concyclic quadrilateral and chordal quadrilateral, the latter since the sides of the quadrilateral are chords of the circumcircle. Usually the quadrilateral is assumed to be convex, but there are also crossed cyclic quadrilaterals. The formulas and properties given below are valid in the convex case.

In Euclidean geometry, a square is a regular quadrilateral, which means that it has four equal sides and four equal angles. It can also be defined as a rectangle with two equal-length adjacent sides. It is the only regular polygon whose internal angle, central angle, and external angle are all equal (90°), and whose diagonals are all equal in length. A square with vertices ABCD would be denoted ABCD.

In plane geometry, Morley's trisector theorem states that in any triangle, the three points of intersection of the adjacent angle trisectors form an equilateral triangle, called the first Morley triangle or simply the Morley triangle. The theorem was discovered in 1899 by Anglo-American mathematician Frank Morley. It has various generalizations; in particular, if all of the trisectors are intersected, one obtains four other equilateral triangles.

In geometry, the circumscribed circle or circumcircle of a polygon is a circle that passes through all the vertices of the polygon. The center of this circle is called the circumcenter and its radius is called the circumradius.

In geometry, Jung's theorem is an inequality between the diameter of a set of points in any Euclidean space and the radius of the minimum enclosing ball of that set. It is named after Heinrich Jung, who first studied this inequality in 1901. Algorithms also exist to solve the smallest-circle problem explicitly.

In Euclidean geometry, a tangential quadrilateral or circumscribed quadrilateral is a convex quadrilateral whose sides all can be tangent to a single circle within the quadrilateral. This circle is called the incircle of the quadrilateral or its inscribed circle, its center is the incenter and its radius is called the inradius. Since these quadrilaterals can be drawn surrounding or circumscribing their incircles, they have also been called circumscribable quadrilaterals, circumscribing quadrilaterals, and circumscriptible quadrilaterals. Tangential quadrilaterals are a special case of tangential polygons.

In Euclidean geometry, the Erdős–Mordell inequality states that for any triangle ABC and point P inside ABC, the sum of the distances from P to the sides is less than or equal to half of the sum of the distances from P to the vertices. It is named after Paul Erdős and Louis Mordell. Erdős (1935) posed the problem of proving the inequality; a proof was provided two years later by Mordell and D. F. Barrow (1937). This solution was however not very elementary. Subsequent simpler proofs were then found by Kazarinoff (1957), Bankoff (1958), and Alsina & Nelsen (2007).

In geometry, the Steiner inellipse, midpoint inellipse, or midpoint ellipse of a triangle is the unique ellipse inscribed in the triangle and tangent to the sides at their midpoints. It is an example of an inellipse. By comparison the inscribed circle and Mandart inellipse of a triangle are other inconics that are tangent to the sides, but not at the midpoints unless the triangle is equilateral. The Steiner inellipse is attributed by Dörrie to Jakob Steiner, and a proof of its uniqueness is given by Dan Kalman.

In geometry, a pentagon is any five-sided polygon or 5-gon. The sum of the internal angles in a simple pentagon is 540°.

In Euclidean geometry, a bicentric quadrilateral is a convex quadrilateral that has both an incircle and a circumcircle. The radii and center of these circles are called inradius and circumradius, and incenter and circumcenter respectively. From the definition it follows that bicentric quadrilaterals have all the properties of both tangential quadrilaterals and cyclic quadrilaterals. Other names for these quadrilaterals are chord-tangent quadrilateral and inscribed and circumscribed quadrilateral. It has also rarely been called a double circle quadrilateral and double scribed quadrilateral.

In Euclidean geometry, an orthodiagonal quadrilateral is a quadrilateral in which the diagonals cross at right angles. In other words, it is a four-sided figure in which the line segments between non-adjacent vertices are orthogonal (perpendicular) to each other.

An acute triangle is a triangle with three acute angles. An obtuse triangle is a triangle with one obtuse angle and two acute angles. Since a triangle's angles must sum to 180° in Euclidean geometry, no Euclidean triangle can have more than one obtuse angle.
