  Fascinating Triangular Numbers By Shyam Sunder Gupta
There are pairs of triangular numbers such that the sum and difference of numbers in each pair are also triangular numbers e.g.
For example 36 is a triangular number and s(36) = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 18 = 55, which is greater than 36.
So the sum of two triangular numbers is equal to the number formed from concatenation of index of these two triangular numbers.

 Triangular Number Activities, HOML SLCC/Meramec   (Site not responding. Last check: )
For example, the 9th triangular number is 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 = 45.
The 10th triangular number is 1+ 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 which is the same as the 9th triangular number but with 10 added on.
This should lead to the generalization that the nth triangular number can be calculated by multiplying n by the next natural number (called "the successor") and then dividing by 2.

The triangular wave form shows the signal that is sent to the solenoid coil of the system.
The triangular wave form is changing polarity all of the time; and, thereby, inducing a voltage all of the time.
The current to the Triangular Wave System solenoid is changing 100% of the time; therefore, there is an induced voltage applied to the particles 100% of the time; rather than a small percentage of the time with a square wave generator.

The triangular test paths, xTR, xTP, and xTB, include a number of pathological test matrices for testing the auxiliary routines xLATRS, xLATPS, and xLATBS, which are robust triangular solves used in condition estimation.
To generate unit triangular matrices of predetermined condition number, we choose a special unit triangular matrix and use plane rotations to fill in the zeros without destroying the ones on the diagonal.
The tests performed for the triangular routines are similar to those for the general and symmetric routines, including tests of the inverse, solve, iterative refinement, and condition estimation routines.

In reality, says Pollock of the DPW, Nashua’s triangular lids can’t fall down into the sewers despite what geometry says, because Nashua Foundries built them slightly tapered so the hole is just a little too small to fit the lid.
Draw lines from one side to the other of a Rouleaux triangle, through the center, and their length will never vary; so it has no dimension shorter than any other that could be used to squeeze the lid through the hole.
