for any spherical triangle on any sphere there associated another triangle called the polar triangle associated with this spherical triangle with the property that the sum of any angle (or side) of one of these two triangles and the length of the side (and the angle)of the other triangle is alway equil to 180 degrees

A polar triangle in spherical trigonometry is a triangle that has one vertex at either of the Earth's poles. Spherical trigonometry deals with measuring angles and sides in triangles on the surface of a sphere, rather than in a flat plane. Polar triangles can be used to determine the distance between two points on the Earth's surface when the latitudes and longitudes of those points are known.
