Measurements & ratios 2
Each length divided by the reference length gives a ratio r. These ratios become frequencies in the next step.
| Measurement | Length | Ratio r |
|---|---|---|
| |P1P2| | 1.7321 | 1.0000 |
| ∠P2P1P3 | 1.0472 | 1.0000 |
Mathematical details
Regular 3-gon inscribed in a circle of radius R; vertex k at angle 90° + 360°·k/3. Side length = 2R·sin(π/3).
Symmetry: Dihedral D3.
Symbolic interpretation
Regular polygons appear across architecture and ritual diagrams worldwide.
