  1. it’s a triangle. don’t you see? there’s the three points. the three edges that separate. it’s as far apart as you can be, there are no diagonals. that’s why people are in love triangles. they don’t want to be too close.

  4. something you make when you are
    a side short of a square
    and makes a sound
    so small it feels like a sorry punctuation
    to the grand overture

  5. Triangles have the tendency of being quite useful in mathematics. I saw them often on my math test today. I suppose since taking the area of some who are positive and negative on a coorinate graph means that they also have personalities.

  6. three sides three corners varying angles totaling 180 degrees

  7. many mystic things are associated with the triangle. the holy trinity first comes to mind- but also more seems to stem from that. it’s amazing how a triangle can support almost any weight imposed on it- perhaps that’s a metaphor for the strength of god in three persons

  8. a shape with defined boundaries. Containing the chaos of life. Three points, three ways, each the same but all different. Different kinds of triangles create new perspectives. Who knew one shape would be so inspiring?

  9. three sides to every story, yours, mine, ours. a holy trinity though at times misguided we seem to get back to the point of what is really important and that is truly beautiful.

  10. isosceles…is that how you spell that? men pushing lines together to form wedges, it’s a garden– a triangle garden made of hedges

  11. i stepped into the room shaped like a triangle. It had something glowing in the corner that I couldn’t quite see. I ambled over the the glowing area to try to get a closer look. The triangle seemed to close in on me as I moved.

  12. all sides were equal but none of them would ever go in the same direction, their paths would cross but never would they walk hand in hand she was driven around the corner by a man in a strange hat and he said, yes my dear, times have changed. her life would never be the same. but she would keep that hat until she died. in a box, in the back of her closet. in a box marked loose change.

  13. 3 sides
    no more no less
    one more i will be square
    one less, i will be but a line

    there is something about being triangle
    always a base,
    always a point

  14. Green, shaded in in a problem on my math texbook. Area, argh. Math is more trouble than it’s worth, in my opinion. I can divide, multiply, add and subtract, but do I really need to factor and cancel out and find the inverse of? Am I really going to need all these formulas once I’ve grown up?

  15. not square

  16. In geometry class back in sophomore year, we learned about the pythagorean theorem and the significance of triangles in mathematics. Two years later, sitting in calculus class, I see these old lessons rushing back to me as I try to differentiate and integrate.

  17. why have three sides when you can have four? or two? why be right when you can be isosceles? why hid when you can dominate. do not make up a square BE the shape that is made. do not turn to fit into edges, make others turn to fit into you.

  18. LMAO TRIANGLE IS THE NEW SQUARE.

  19. Triangle I dont really get you but I love you even though you were a whore and fucked that guy and that other guy then went back to me i still love you.

  20. Triangles come in many different ways. We see them in the shape of people, clothing, etc. triangles are my least favorite shape, it does not attract me, I am more partial to many sided shapes.

  21. The triangle looked at the square. So four-sided. So full of itself. How did the square ever get to be the standard these days? Triangles were so much better. They were sturdy and simple and angular and… amazing! The triangle was of the opinion that the world would be a better place if there were more three-sided tables, or skyscrapers, or even cars. Triangle for president!

  22. the bermuda triangle is a very intersting place with interesting phenomena involved with it. many planes such as flight 19 have completely disappeared over it’s boundaries. some say that this has a lot to do with gasses rising from the crust.

  23. the triangle is a shape with three angles, it looks like a hat you would do with a newspaper, there are three types of triangles, and there are many manthematical formulas to use with them

  24. three sides, three angles. three different ways to view it all. triangles have always been my favorite shape; something so precise and peculiar about them that they’ve drawn my interest, like focal points in a painting.

  25. there’s no such thing as triangles. Only zuul! Srriously though thuiis just bound to be riddled with typos and nons ense becausecause of the time restraints and the fcat that now i feel like i can’t stop typing at super fast speed before you cut me off and force me to?! go to the next word!
    whoi are you people/.11
    What makes you think this is okay?!
    Fucking crazy bastards!

  26. there are many different ways to talk and write about triangles. first of all, they are really pointy. second, they do not roll as well as circles do. third, three is a nice number, the magic number according to school house rock videos, so its a nice shape, as some may conclude.

  27. A love triangle of uneven sides, can it even be called a triangle?

    Annemarie
  28. is much different than a square. My heart is triangle shaped i think. All the love gets stuck in 30 and 60 degree angles and every time it pumps all the love gets all messed up all over again.

  29. triangles
    points pins pining
    in the end each side is connected
    somehow.

  30. I always end up here: in a love triangle.
    Adjust the angles, change the length of the sides

    Turn the figure.

    It’s always the same.

  31. There it is. Not intimidating. Just metal. Ting. See, one stroke is fine. Ting. Not so bad. Just hold it. And tap. Ting.

  32. Geometry. School. Brings bad memories and school news. I hate it. I love it. See the lightbulb flash on. Love those kids. Hate those kids. Wish them the best.

  33. A triangle of light floated above the horizon, sparkling like a thousand suns, and making it impossible to look at directly. After more than a year, the ship had finally returned.

  34. It took myself and one of my best friends until ninth grade to realize that the word “triangle” comes from the root words “tri” and “angle”. Three angles. Who would have guessed?

    That said, we got quadrilateral (four sides). Go figure, we got the Latin but not the words we should recognize.

  35. Triangle, my dearest friend.
    ‘A’ squared, ‘b’ squared, ‘c’ squared.
    Geometric shapes abound,
    hopeless children failing,
    failing,
    failing math.

  36. I sat with my head perched on my palm. The clock ticked ever so slowly to my right, and to my left I could hear my desk partner snoring. The teacher droned on, unaware of the class’ utter boredom. I sighed…

    Geometry…

  37. The most stable thing we could think of… assuming we didn’t miscut our wood.

    Which we did, because Murphy is a punk.

    We built a tower that was triangular… but it fell under weight. At least our grade wasn’t affected.

  38. Triangles would be lovely if we were studying them in math. We are, unfortunately, studying the graphs of triangles, like sin functions and all that. It’s atrocious, and I fear I failed that test. Why, math, why?

    Kara
  39. triangles. I don’t really enjoy writing about them. Why do I keep on having to write about this one shape? I wonder if this website is testing my creative abilities. But of course, no website would have such a conspiracy. Because artificial intelligence isn’t actually intelligent, right?

  40. hm.

    okay.

    a triangle has three vertices and three sides.

    a triangle is a confusing way of getting from point A to point B while somehow going to point C in between the two. rather pointless, wouldn’t you agree?

    a triangle is.
