[ 1913 Webster] Note: A triangle is either plane, spherical, or curvilinear, according as its sides are straight lines, or arcs of great circles of a sphere, or any curved lines whatever. A plane triangle is designated as scalene, isosceles, or equilateral, according as it has no two sides equal, two sides equal, or all sides equal; and also as right- angled, or oblique- angled, according as it has one right angle, or none; and oblique- angled triangle is either acute- angled, or obtuse- angled, according as all the angles are acute, or one of them obtuse. The terms scalene, isosceles, equilateral, right- angled, acute- angled, and obtuse- angled, are applied to spherical triangles in the same sense as to plane triangles. [ 1913 Webster] 2. ( Mus.)
