  1. North Atlantic triangle

    The North Atlantic triangle is a theoretical construct for studying the history of Canadian foreign policy. It seeks to explain the importance of British American relations to Canada s security, and even survival, during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The triangle in question was Canada, the United States of America, and the United Kingdom. This triangle was invisible to Americans or Britons, for whom Canada was a side issue at best, but it was vital to Canada. Canada was intimately involved with both countries, and needed good relations between them to its own security. The primary concern of Canadian governments was to avoid a repetition of American invasions of Invasion of Canada 1775 1775 and War of 1812 1812 1815 , when Canada had been used as the battlefield where American and British differences were settled. Culturally and philosophically, most Canadians of the era especially the ethnically British majority identified with Britain and the British Empire and distrusted the United States, but at the same time many Canadians were eager to trade with the large, growing, and nearby market in the United States. Overview Canada s interest in Anglo American relations began as early as the Canadian American Reciprocity Treaty of 1854, when Canada was still a disunited collection of British colonies. The short era of increased trade with the US that the treaty created lasting to 1866 deeply influenced Canadian trade policy and attitudes towards the US for years to come, encouraging the free traders. But the treaty s cancellation by the Americans also raised ... googleScholar.qst?docId 5002307559 questia.com North Atlantic Triangle Revisited Geo political ... 00000383 art00009 inentaconnect.com Delineating the North Atlantic triangle The Second World War ... 3E2.0.CO 3B2 U jstor.org North Atlantic Triangle The Interplay of Canada, the United States and Great ... of triangle diplomacy lasted in various forms for decades.

  1. Sunni Triangle

    Unreferenced date December 2009 Image Sunni triangle.jpg right thumb 300px Map of the Sunni Triangle The Sunni Triangle is a densely populated region of Iraq to the northwest of Baghdad that is inhabited mostly by Sunni Islam Sunni Muslim Arab s. The roughly triangular area s corners are usually said to lie near Baqubah on the east side of the triangle , Baghdad on the South side , Ramadi on the west side and Tikrit on the north side . Each side is approximately 125 miles long. The area also contains the cities of Samarra and Fallujah . The area was a center of strong support for former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein s government starting in the 1970s many government workers, politicians, and military leaders came from the area. Saddam himself was born just outside Tikrit. After the 2003 invasion of Iraq , the area became a focus of Iraqi insurgency armed Sunni opposition to Coalition rule. It was widely predicted in the Western press that Saddam would seek shelter from Sunni supporters and on December 13, 2003, he was captured in a raid on the village of ad Dawr about 15  km south of Tikrit. The term Sunni triangle was used intermittently from the 1970s among academic Iraq specialists, usually to differentiate it from the northern and southern parts of the country. An early use in mainstream media is a San Francisco Chronicle article of September 14, 2002 in which former United Nations weapons inspector Scott Ritter says We may be able to generate support for an invasion among some of the Shiites and some of the Kurds, but to get to Baghdad you must penetrate the Sunni Triangle. However, it did not achieve widespread use until a New York Times article of June 10, 2003 popularised the term in a report on a new U.S. effort to quell nascent armed resistance in Sunni Muslim dominated areas north and west of Baghdad in an area known as the Sunni triangle . It has since ... Triangle should not be confused with the so called Triangle of Death Iraq Triangle of Death , an area ...   more details



  1. Medial triangle

    Image Medial Triangle.svg thumb right The red triangle is the medial triangle of the black. The endpoints of the red triangle coincide with the midpoints of the black triangle. The medial triangle of a triangle ABC is the triangle with vertices at the midpoint s of the triangle s sides AB, AC and BC. The medial triangle is different from the median triangle . Clarification needed date February 2011 The medial triangle can also be viewed as the image of triangle ABC transformed by a homothety centered at the centroid with ratio 1 2. Hence, the medial triangle is inversely Similarity geometry similar and shares the same centroid and median geometry medians with triangle ABC . It also follows from this that the perimeter of the medial triangle equals the semiperimeter of triangle ABC , and that the area is one quarter of the area of triangle ABC . Note that the orthocenter of the medial triangle coincides with the circumcenter of triangle ABC . This fact provides a tool for proving Line geometry collinearity of the circumcenter, centroid and orthocenter. The medial triangle is the pedal triangle of the circumcenter. If XYZ is the medial triangle of ABC , then ABC is the anticomplementary triangle of XYZ . The anticomplementary triangle of ABC is formed by three lines parallel to the sides ... A . Let a BC , b CA , c AB be the sidelengths of triangle ABC. Trilinear coordinates for the vertices of the medial triangle are given by X 0 1 b 1 c Y 1 a 0 1 c Z 1 a 1 b 0 Trilinear coordinates for the vertices of the anticomplementary triangle, X Y Z , are given by X &minus 1 a 1 b 1 c Y 1 a &minus 1 b 1 c Z 1 a 1 b &minus 1 c The name anticomplementary triangle corresponds to the fact that its vertices are the anticomplements of the vertices A, B, C of the reference triangle.

Palliser s Triangle , or the Palliser Triangle , is a largely Semi arid climate semi arid steppe region in the Prairie Provinces of Western Canada that was determined to be unsuitable for agriculture because of its unfavourable climate. The soil in this area is dark brown or black in color and is very nutrient rich. The semi arid conditions, however, initially made this area difficult to farm. The triangular shaped area is located mostly in southern Alberta and Saskatchewan . History The area was named after John Palliser , the leader of the 1857 1859 Palliser Expedition survey expedition to Canada s west, who first remarked on this area. ref http esask.uregina.ca entry palliser and hind expeditions.html The Encyclopedia Saskatchewan The Palliser and Hind Expeditions ref Palliser discovered it was a dry land with no trees thus, he thought it would be unsuitable for growing crops. A few years later John Macoun , a government official, argued that it would be good for growing wheat and advertised it as such to immigrant farmers. The triangle began to be settled and farmed at the start of the 20th century. Ranching For many years this area was very attractive to ranching . The sandy soil, grassy land cover, and dry weather supported grazing cattle grazing . Many U.S. ranchers would bring herds north to graze in the triangle. By 1912, however, much of the land was overgrazing overgrazed . Grain production For a time yields were high, but a combination of the dry conditions and poor agricultural practices turned the area into a Dust Bowl in the 1930s, helping plunge Canada into the The Great Depression in Canada Great Depression .
