Triangle FORMATION [C1]:
A Triangle is a 3-dancer formation consisting of 2 Base dancers and an Apex dancer.
In a Tandem-Based Triangle the Base dancers form a Generalized Tandem;
in a Wave-Based Triangle, the Base dancers form a Generalized Couple.

Triangle IDENTIFICATION (from selected setups):
| |
| |
| | Galaxy | | Hourglass | | 1/4 Diamond setup |
|
Note: The Base dancers need not be adjacent. E.g., from the Hourglass
formation shown above, the Base dancers of the Wave-Based Triangle are far
apart.
Triangle Circulate [C1]:
From a Triangle.
Move forward to the next position within the Triangle, turning as necessary
to take the original facing direction (or original opposite facing direction,
if it is a facing Triangle Circulate) of the dancer who was originally there.
Note: As with a Box Circulate or Diamond Circulate, when doing a Triangle
Circulate, maintain the handedness of the formation
(i.e., keep the same shoulder toward the Center of the Triangle).
Inpoint | Outpoint Triangle IDENTIFICATION [C1]:
From Twin Diamonds:
the In | Out-Facing Point is the Apex of a Triangle.
The other Point of the same Diamond must be facing the opposite direction.

In | Out-Center Triangle IDENTIFICATION [C1V]:
From Point-to-Point Diamonds.
The In | Out-Facing Center is the Apex of a Triangle.

anyone-Point Triangle IDENTIFICATION [C1V]:
From Twin Diamonds.
This identification can be used when both points of the Diamond are facing the same
direction.
| |
| | Beau-Point Triangles | | Belle-Point Triangles |
|
anyone-Based Triangles IDENTIFICATION [C1V]:
From setups such as C1 Phantoms where there are several possible Triangles.
The anyone dancers are the Base dancers of a Triangle.
