Leonhard Euler made important contributions to triangle geometry through his investigations of relationships between the sides and angles of triangles. He derived many formulas relating trigonometric functions of one angle of a triangle to expressions involving the sides and trigonometric functions of the other angles. Euler's work on triangle geometry helped establish trigonometry as an independent field of mathematics.
