Improving the Methods for Determining the Basic Dimensions of the Egyptian Triangle
Abstract
The article is devoted to the ordinal number of the Egyptian triangle, its place and importance in the mathematical calculations performed to find the sizes of these triangles, as well as several new formulas used to present these mathematical calculations and their application are given in this work. In fact, a table of the Egyptian triangle’s order is given and it is possible to find the quantitative dependences of the components found by the formulas proposed for the mathematical calculations.
