spherical triangle
A spherical triangle is a geometric shape on the surface of a sphere, defined by three great circle arcs intersecting pairwise in three vertices, typically on the surface of a sphere. The sum of the interior angles of a spherical triangle exceeds 180 degrees, contrasting with the sum of interior angles in a flat Euclidean triangle which equals exactly 180 degrees. The field of spherical trigonometry involves the study of spherical triangles.
