Class Method Details

.new(point0, point1, point2) ⇒ Object .new(point, length) ⇒ Object

Overloads:

• .new(point0, point1, point2) ⇒ Object

  Contruct a ScaleneTriangle using three Points

  Parameters:

  • point0 (Point) —

    The first vertex of the Geometry::Triangle

  • point1 (Point) —

    Another vertex of the Geometry::Triangle

  • point2 (Point) —

    The final vertex of the Geometry::Triangle

• .new(point, length) ⇒ Object

  Construct a RightTriangle using a Point and the lengths of the sides

  Parameters:

  • point (Point) —

    The location of the vertex at Geometry::Triangle‘s right angle

  • base (Number) —

    The length of the Geometry::Triangle‘s base leg

  • height (Number) —

    The length of the Geometry::Triangle‘s vertical leg
