17 They can claim that all polygons are made from them

18 They are subjected to trigonometry meaning 3 measurements

19 They can be subjected to Pythagoras' theorem: a2+b2 = c2 asright triangles

20 They are subjected to the Sine Rule: a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinA

21 They are subjected to the Cosine Rule: a2 = b2+c2-2bc*cosA
