 Java Gallery: Hyperbolic Triangles   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
One of the most surprising facts in hyperbolic geometry is that there is an upper limit to the possible area a triangle can have, even though there is not an upper limit to the lengths of the sides of the triangle.
In hyperbolic geometry, the sum of the angles of a triangle is always less than 180 degrees (PI radians).
Thus the area is proportional to the defect, with the above proportionality constant (k is 1 for the model of the hyperbolic plane we're using).

 Hyperbolic angle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A hyperbolic angle in standard position is the angle at (0,0) between the ray to (1,1) and the ray to (x,1/x) where x > 1.
The magnitude of the hyperbolic angle is the area of the corresponding hyperbolic sector which is log x.
The hyperbolic functions sinh, cosh, and tanh use the hyperbolic angle as their independent variable since their values may be premised on analogies to circular trigonometric functions when the hyperbolic angle defines a hyperbolic triangle.

 Hyperbolic triangle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In hyperbolic geometry, a hyperbolic triangle is a figure in a hyperbolic plane, analogous to a triangle in Euclidean geometry.
The vertices are usually considered to be in the hyperbolic plane, but sometimes one considers some of the vertices to be at the circle at infinity.
A property of hyperbolic triangles in hyperbolic geometry is that the sum of the angles of the triangle is less than 180°.

 3 H3: 3D Hyperbolic Quasi-Hierarchical Graphs
Hyperbolic geometry is one of the non-Euclidean geometries developed at the turn of the century.
Hyperbolic and spherical geometry are the only two non-Euclidean geometries that are homogeneous and have isotropic distance metrics: in other words, there is a uniform, meaningful, and continuous concept of the distance between two points.
Rigid hyperbolic objects that translate along the hyperbola will appear in the projection to grow to a maximum when at the pole and then shrink, and after translating infinitely up the hyperbola their projection will be infinitely close to the line segment border.

In hyperbolic geometry, if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the alternate interior angles are congruent and the corresponding angles are congruent.
In hyperbolic geometry, the altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle forms two triangles, each of which is similar to the original triangle and to each other.

For example, all the triangles in Figure 1 are the same hyperbolic size, as are all the fl fish (or white fish) of Figure 2.
In the Poincaré model, equidistant curves are represented by circular arcs that intersect the bounding circle in acute (or obtuse) angles.
For any acute angle and hyperbolic line, there are two equidistant curves ("branches"), one on each side of the line, making that angle with the bounding circle [Gr1].

The Poincare half-plane model is conformal, which means that hyperbolic angles in the Poincare half-plane model are exactly the same as the Euclidean angles (with the angles between two intersecting circles being the angle between their tangent lines at the point of intersection.
Since the hyperbolic line segments are (usually) curved, the angles of a hyperbolic triangle add up to strictly less than 180 degrees.
Observe that the smaller the traingle, the closer the sum of the angles is to 180 degrees.

 Semi-Regular Tilings of the Plane Part 4: Hyperbolic Results
Recall that because triangles in the hyperbolic plane have angle sum less than PI, it follows that the measure of the angle at a vertex of a regular p-gon in the hyperbolic plane is less than PI-(2*PI/p).
To prove part (3), use the Hyperbolic Triangle Lemma to obtain a tiling by triangles with angles with angles PI/p, PI/q, and PI/r.
The segment from A_(k+1)/2 to B creates two congruent (k+3)/2-gons with (k-1)/2 angles of 2*PI/p, an angle of PI/p at A_(k+1)/2, and an angle of PI/q at B. Since p is even, as in the discussion of Remark 2, part (2), this (k+3)/2-gon tiles the plane via reflections in its edges.

 The Ring of Hyperbolic Quaternions
The modulus of biquaternions, hyperbolic quaternions, and coquaternions does not stay non-negative and the topology of these other quaternion-type rings is then, non-Euclidean, as the persistent student learns.
Now in hyperbolic quaternions M developed by MacFarlane in the 1890s, we trade in versors i, j, k for motors i, j, k and in fact take V ⊂ M to have a sphere S of motors.

Because of this, drawing a hyperbolic circle through a given point with a given center is different from drawing a Euclidean circle through a given point with a given center, and it is not clear (to me) that the former construction can be reduced to the latter (or to any other Euclidean construction).
One might also consider scaling down a putative hyperbolic trisection to the infinitesimal scale to obtain a Euclidean trisection (which we know to be impossible), but the hyperbolic plane admits no scaling transformations (unlike the Euclidean plane), and anyway the limit of a valid construction may not be a valid construction (degeneracies may arise).
Since this interpretation fails for other geometries such as the hyperbolic plane or the sphere, it would be nice to understand the problem in a way that would extend naturally to other geometries.

I don't think it's possible in hyperbolic space that all the dihedral angles are 120 degrees, but what you really need is just that the sum of twice the pentagon-hexagon angle plus the hexagon-hexagon angle is 360 degrees, which should be perfectly possible.
The hexagon- hexagon dihedral angle is larger than the hexagon-pentagon dihedral angle in the Euclidean limit (of small edge length) and I think that this always remains true as the edge length is increased (this is the shaky part of the argument).
One thing I'm not sure about: The hexagon- hexagon dihedral angle is larger than the hexagon-pentagon dihedral angle in the Euclidean limit (of small edge length) and I think that this always remains true as the edge length is increased (this is the shaky part of the argument).

 Hyperbolic Tessellations
The hyperbolic plane can not be metrically represented in the Euclidean plane, but Poincaré described ways that it can be conformally represented in the Euclidean plane.
For this representation, a straight line in the hyperbolic plane is represented as the part (in the disk) of a circle that meets the boundary of the disk at right angles.
For instance, here is a representation of the tessellation of the hyperbolic plane by pentagons where four pentagons meet at each vertex, that is, the {5,4}-tessellation.
