description | An acute triangulation
of a polygon is a triangulation whose triangles have all their
angles less than . The number of triangles in a
triangulation is called the size of it. In this paper, we
investigate acute triangulations of trapezoids and convex
pentagons and prove new results about such triangulations with
minimum size. This completes and improves in some cases the
results obtained in two papers of Yuan (2010). |
