Comparison triangles are geometric constructs used in Riemannian geometry to compare the lengths of sides and angles of triangles drawn on different curved surfaces. They provide a way to analyze the properties of a triangle in a Riemannian manifold by relating it to a triangle in a simpler space, often Euclidean or hyperbolic, allowing for easier reasoning about curvature and distances.
congrats on reading the definition of Comparison Triangles. now let's actually learn it.
