My math is a bit rusty, for a moment I was wondering about the proof of his theorem but then I realized that I messed up his theorem with the angles in a triangle that sum to 180°, which does not always hold up.
- seanhunter 3y agoIf the angles in a triangle don't add up to 180o then I think that means the triangle is not on a flat plane. An example would be if you took a point on the equator of the earth, moved East or West 1/4 of the earth's circumference and took another point and then projected those two points North until they met at the pole, you would have a triangle with 3 interior right angles.
- Beijinger 3y agoYes. Pythagoras theorem holds up in non-euclidian space but the sum of the angles is 180 degree does not.
