448: 178: 438: 417: 384: 648:• The most famous association of the triangle in conspiracy theories is with the Illuminati, a purported secret society believed by conspiracy theorists to control world events. The Eye of Providence, an eye enclosed within a triangle, is often claimed to be the symbol of the Illuminati, representing their omnipresent surveillance and influence over global affairs. This symbol’s appearance on the U.S. one-dollar bill adds to the mystique and speculation surrounding it. 201: 148: 923: 654:• The triangle also features prominently in Masonic symbolism. The triangle, often referred to as the “Delta” in Freemasonry, represents the Deity and divine illumination. The use of this symbol in Masonic rituals and architecture has led to various conspiracy theories suggesting that Freemasons wield significant, covert influence over world governments and organizations. 375: 660:• Pyramids, which are essentially three-dimensional triangles, are frequently cited in theories about ancient aliens, lost civilizations, and mystical powers. Some theorists argue that pyramids are energy sources or communication devices built by ancient civilizations with knowledge far beyond their time, possibly with extraterrestrial assistance. 666:• Another triangle-related conspiracy theory involves the Trilateral Commission, an organization founded in 1973 to foster cooperation among the U.S., Europe, and Japan. Conspiracy theorists claim that the three sides of the “triangle” in the organization’s name represent a triad of powerful entities seeking to establish a New World Order. 678:• Triangles are also a common motif in various occult practices and symbolism. Inverted triangles, triangles with eyes, or triangles intersected by lines are often interpreted as having mystical significance. Conspiracy theorists sometimes connect these symbols to rituals or groups believed to have secretive or malevolent agendas. 672:• Although more of a mystery than a traditional conspiracy theory, the Bermuda Triangle has been the subject of numerous speculative ideas. Theories range from alien abductions to time warps, all centered around this triangular area in the Atlantic Ocean where ships and aircraft are said to have mysteriously disappeared. 749:
Thank you for the clarification, Jacobolus. My intention was to contribute to the discussion by exploring an unusual geometric concept involving triangles with prime-numbered angles. I noted the recent influx of graffiti and appreciate the clarification on what might have motivated those posts. I now

The concept you discovered involving triangles with angles that are all prime numbers, specifically including 2 as one of the angles, is indeed a unique and interesting idea. However, there does not appear to be a widely recognized name for such triangles in mathematical literature. These types of

In summary, triangles have a deep-rooted presence in various conspiracy theories due to their symbolic associations with power, knowledge, and mysticism. Whether representing secret societies, ancient mysteries, or occult practices, the triangle remains a potent symbol in the world of conspiracy

This article defines the term without using it (the word "needle" appears only two times in the article, in the same paragraph). I have encounered another definition, as a triangle with a very small angle. These definitions are not equivalent although one implies the other in the case of plane

Triangles, particularly when associated with the Eye of Providence, are frequently cited in conspiracy theories. The triangle symbol is often linked to secret societies, occult practices, and global conspiracies. Here are a few examples of how triangles feature in conspiracy theories:

7 years ago I found out these triangles that were made of prime numbers as its three angles. There is only six of them and they look like shards. They are made of the prime numbers 2 and several other prime numbers as angles. I wrote about them here

that it needs to be listed here. It seems to be a niche-within-a-niche term, used by a very small number of recreational mathematics people. The disambiguation notice looks like the only hatnote worth keeping.
