Comments

There is a unique (shape of) triangle ABC that is both side-silver and angle-silver. Its angles are B, t*B and pi-B-t*B, where t is the silver ratio, 1+sqrt(2), at A014176. "Side-silver" and "angle-silver" refer to partitionings of ABC, each in a manner that matches the continued fraction [2,2,2,...] of t. For doubly golden and doubly e-ratio triangles, see A152149 and A188544. For the side partitioning and angle partitioning (i,e, constructions in which 2 triangles are removed at each stage, analogous to the removal of 1 square at each stage of the partitioning of the golden rectangle into squares) which match arbitrary continued fractions (of sidelength ratios and angle ratios), see the 2007 reference.

Examples

			B=0.4235466615478147887414222095779154 approximately.
B=24.2674 degrees approximately.

Formula

B is the number in [0,Pi] such that sin(B*t^2)=t*sin(B), where t=1+sqrt(2), the silver ratio.
