Taxicab Angles and Trigonometry

Published 14 Jan 2011 in math.MG | (1101.2917v1)

Abstract: A natural analogue to angles and trigonometry is developed in taxicab geometry. This structure is then analyzed to see which, if any, congruent triangle relations hold. A nice application involving the use of parallax to determine the exact (taxicab) distance to an object is also discussed.
