1 Triangles and Islam The Islamic use of astronomical instruments has been a large influence to the western world

2 The Islamic world used some advanced mathematics known as trigonometry.
This is all to do with triangles We can explore some of the things they did by using some more simple properties of triangles.

3 Find out more The red button will tell you more about the properties of triangles The blue button will explain how the Islamic world used this knowledge to great effect. Introduction to Triangles The Umbra Recta
